A/N- Here's the Bellmaker trailer. I will continue to update the cast list.

"In this beautiful country"
V.O- One creature
(Cuts to the Foxwolf, light gleaming on his wolf claws and fangs)
V.O- Will unleash an evil...
(Cuts to his troops marching across Southward)
…far greater than any can imagine...
"It started that night…in that hall"
(Cuts to Rab and Gael arguing angrily)
Gael: Either welcome them or leave Castle Floret
Rab: We will take the second. From this moment, Castle Floret stands unguarded!
(Flashes to an action sequence- Urgan's army storms into Floret- Urgan grabs Truffen and holds a knife to his throat- Gael tries to break his grip and is knocked aside- Serena screams)
Urgan- (V.O) Southward is mine!
(Flashes to Mariel and Dandin traveling)
V.O- Two warriors from Redwall are coming
(Cuts to Mariel and Dandin talking to Meldrum)
Dandin: Who is this Foxwolf they speak of?

Mariel: After the cruelty we saw today the Foxwolf's got two new enemies. For life.
"But will they're friendship be enough…"
(Cuts to them running from the Foxwolf's troops, leading them onto the cascading sand dune)

"Five will find them"

"But only four will return"

As for how I'd want them to animate it, the best, if they could pull it off, would be how they animated Gollum, with realistic backgrounds, or how they did Stuart Little. The second best would be computer animation, like Finding Nemo, with the images looking like they came right off the book covers. I really don't want 2D cartoon animation!!! Basically, I want the films to be able to capture the seriousness and emotion of the books instead of being something laughable. For instance, I want people to actually tear up on Finbarr Galedeep's death, and so forth. Oh well. We can always dream, can't we?
