Strange World: Dennis Quaid on Playing Jake Gyllenhaal's Father Again
20Director Don Hall and co-director Qui Nguyen's new movie, Strange World, is an original action-packed adventure focused on the Clades, a family led by legendary explorer Jaeger Clade voiced by Dennis Quaid. When Jaeger goes missing, his son Searcher (Jake Gyllenhaal) becomes the hometown hero for discovering a new plant called Pando that packs the power to keep the town of Avalonia abuzz. Years later when Searcher is enjoying the good life with his wife (Gabrielle Union) and son (Jaboukie Young-White), he's shocked to learn that Pando isn't the never-ending miracle crop he once thought. In fact, Pando is dying and Searcher needs to venture under the surface of Avalonia in order to save it.
In an interview with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff, Young-White and Quaid discussed the freedom they were given to improvise with the material and how the animators managed to capture physical mannerisms in addition to their voice work. Quaid also discussed how Strange World marks his second father-son movie with Gyllenhaal after 2004's The Day After Tomorrow.
Check it all out in this video interview! Strange World hits theaters nationwide on November 23rd.
