The animated movie is based on Neil Gaiman's book of the same name. During its original run at the global box office, Coraline earned $131 million.
The voice cast of Coraline featured plenty of talented performers who brought the characters from the page to the screen. Teri Hatcher, Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French were all a part of the film, while Coraline looked for a way to return to her original reality. After voicing the titular character, Dakota Fanning went on to star in The Twilight Saga and The Last of Robin Hood, with the young performer cementing her trend of balancing blockbusters with independent movies.
Directed by Henry Selick Close Henry Selick was the director behind Coraline. Besides being known for bringing the charismatic character to the big screen, Selick is also famous for sitting on the director's chair for The Nightmare Before Christmas. The beloved adventure followed Jack Skellington as he tried to understand why having holidays other than Halloween was important.
The re-release of Coraline also marks Laika's return to the big screen after many years of being absent from cinemas. The last time the studio made a major move in multiplexes was when Missing Link delighted the world in 2019. Zach Galifianakis voiced the titular character in the story written and directed by Chris Butler. And there's more to come. The studio will return to the big screen with the release of Wildwood, another scary adventure that will premiere in 2025.
