Posted by:

I'll take my movies "subbed" anyday, but I guess most of the US still don't like to read their movies. Sony is gearing up to "dubb" "Steamboy" for it's US release. Casting announcements have been made and here are the following actors that have been slated to lend their voice to this movie.

Anna Paquin will play Ray Steam
Alfred Molina will play Eddie Steam
Patrick Stewart will play Lord Steam

A retro science-fiction epic set in Victorian England, Steamboy features an inventor prodigy named Ray Steam who receives a mysterious metal ball containing a new form of energy capable of powering an entire nation. This young boy must use it to fight evil, redeem his family, and save London from destruction. The lush Victorian interiors and the elegance of the era's mechanical design allows Otomo to create dazzling visual backgrounds and machines for this film. With more than 180,000 drawing and 400 CG cuts, Steamboy is sure to be one of the most elaborate animated features of 2004.
