Our girl Charlize helps Astro Boy to fly
Big stars for Astro Boy, Charlize Theron & Samuel L. Jackson.
This is what the director has to say.
Bowers: "Samuel L. Jackson, I don't want to give it away, because when his voice comes into the movie it's such a great moment. But he is playing a robot, and Charlize Theron, we have a little movie that opens the film. A movie within a movie. Charlize Theron is narrating it."

Set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy is about a young robot with incredible powers. Astro boy was created by a brilliant scientist named Tenma (Nicolas Cage) and is powered by positive 'blue' energy. Astro Boy (Freddie Highmore) seems to have it all: super strength, x-ray vision, unbelievable speed and the ability to fly.
Astro Boy originated in 1952 as a manga character created by Osamu Tezukand and first appeared on television in Japan in 1963 (ie 13 years before we got TV in South Africa).
