Author Charlie Mackesy spoke to Newsweek about adapting his novel 'The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse' for an Apple TV+ Christmas special.
The film took two years to make, and during this time Mackesy helped in a range of areas including co-writing the script, helping the animation team and also giving advice to the film's voice cast.
"Whenever I look at any piece of film I just remember the intention that went into each bit," he went on."And I think the animators did a very fine job in the end learning the language and being able to do it. I take my hat off to all of them, I have a real respect for them."A still from"The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse," which premiered on Apple TV+ on Christmas Day.
"Gabriel, I hand-wrote a letter to him asking if he could be the Horse and he wrote me one back and told me 'I am the Horse,' it was an amazing performance. And Idris is so talented, he can have that threatening sound as the Fox and then he could turn that into kindness very quickly." Something that was most important to convey in the film was taking the book's message about mental health, and supporting those who are struggling with their own, in a meaningful way.
"I think they're all things probably we struggle to admit or engage with, with each other, and I just wanted to make sure [it was in the film]. I didn't want to make a film that just looked pretty, I wanted it to have a bit of grit in it, I wanted it to have meaning."
