Moviehole bud Teresa Palmer (“Bedtime Stories”, “2:37”, the ill-fated “Justice League of America”) has snagged a plum role in Disney’s live-action “Sorcerers Apprentice” movie, according to THR.
The flick, headlined by Nicolas Cage, will see Adelaide-bred Palmer playing the love interest of the Apprentice (played by “Tropic Thunder” co-star Jay Baruchel).
Taking its cues from the classic Goethe and Paul Dukas-inpsired Mickey Mouse portion of “Fantasia,” the live-action feature centers on an apprentice (Baruchel) who is left to tend to a magic workshop when his sorcerer master (Cage) leaves it in his hands. The apprentice gets a broomstick to do his chores for him, but things get out of control when the broom develops a mind of its own.
Jon Turteltaub is directing; Jerry Bruckheimer is producing.
Palmer, of course, is still attached to play Talia Al Ghul in the “Justice League” film which Warner insisit is still very much happening (they just won’t talk dates).
