Will this movie be translated also?


Does anybody know if this movie will also be translated? Asterix is a great series, along with Tintin.

reply

translated? it is made in English originally.. with sam from LOTR as one of the voices I know.

Er.. does "Astérix et les Vikings" sound English to you? And "Language: French" is quite clear even...

reply

What about the German-named "Asterix in Amerika", produced in Germany but with English as its original language? I wouldn't be surprised if "Asterix et les Vikings" is being shot in English, given is perceived status as the "official" international language.

And as for IMDB stating "Language: French", since when was IMDB right about everything? ;)

reply

Heh, you're totally right^^;
Even if it IS french, they will probably translate it. I mean, Asterix (hey, don't forget about Obelix:P) is very popular. And all the other movies have been translated into MANY languages, so I can't see why this one should be an exception. Too bad it's released in '06, that's all I can say. Ah! The yearning, the anticipation:D

Someone doesn't like me.

It is pretty normal that European animated features are animated to fit the English soundtrack, this is also the case with "Asterix and the Vikings".

reply

Yes and sadly IMDB does not see fit to credit the English language voice/over performers! They were quite satisfactory.
It's on YouTube in English!

We are doing the animation in the film to the English (US) dialog that was recorded in January last year - it will be post-synced in many other languages.
