Thanks to 20th Century Fox here’s a first official picture of Suraj Sharma as Pi Patel in the upcoming movie adaptation of Life of Pi, the fantasy adventure novel written by Yann Martel:
“The story of an Indian boy named Pi, a zookeeper’s son who finds himself in the company of a hyena, zebra, orangutan, and a Bengal tiger after a shipwreck sets them adrift in the Pacific Ocean.”
The film is directed by Ang Lee (who helmed Brokeback Mountain). It is set to hit theaters on December 21, 2012.
