James McAvoy in Garden Gnome Love Story


We'll take James any way we can get him, even as the voice of a romantic garden gnome!

From Perez:

When Shakespeare met Elton John, sounds good to us!!!

There's a new CGI-animated film in the works, and this will one deal with a Shakespearean theme.

James McAvoy and Emily Blunt are said to be the voices of the main characters in the Romeo & Juliet inspired flick.

And those main characters just happen to be some garden gnomes in love, but from rival gardens, of course.

Gnomeo & Juliet will represent an edgier adaptation of Shakespeare's play.

The original role of Juliet was said to go to Kate Winslet two years ago, though she had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.

The flick is being made by Mirimax and Elton John's Rocket Pictures.

And luckily it will feature several of Elton's classic songs.

Your Song sung by gnomes = cute!
