"Dreamkeepers" is a film adaptation of a cycle of books by William Joyce. The story revolves around those whom all children love: Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny.
In the cartoon, these characters are not just images. Each of them lives in their own part of the world. Days and nights they devote to fulfilling their duties and preparing for the holidays. Their strength lies in the faith of the children. When the kids are happy and satisfied, it is impossible to defeat the Guardians.
The plot of the cartoon Rise of the Guardians
The four main Guardians - Northerner, Fairy, Rabbit and Sandman - have been making sure that children continue to believe in them for decades. To do this, they prepare gifts for Christmas and Easter, leave coins in place of the fallen teeth, send happy and vivid dreams every night.
But one day a shadow appears on the globe reflecting the number of children who believe in the Guardians. The northerner understands that their main enemy, Kromeshnik, has returned. Without a moment's hesitation, he calls an emergency meeting of all Guardians.
While the characters are debating whether to take any-or measures, Moon-face intervenes. He reveals that Kromeshnik has indeed returned and the Guardians will need Icejack's help to defeat him.
Characters
In the cartoon "The Keepers of Dreams" (2012), the voice actors had to try to convey all the emotions that their characters experienced at certain moments with just one voice. World-famous stars participated in the original voice acting: Chris Pine, Hugh Jackman, Alec Baldwin, Isla Fisher and others.
Ice Jack
In the animated film "The Keepers of Dreams" (2012), actor Chris Pine became the voice of the main character - Ice Jack. His character is little known among children, because almost no one believes in him. Because of this, Jack cannot be seen by people.
But the spirit of winter cares little. The only thing a teenager likes to do is to bring joy to children by spreading cold winds, letting in frost, and forming ice slides. But due to the return of the Kromshnik, Jack becomes the Keeper.
The mischievous spirit has to learn to work in a team, be responsible for his actions and fight for the faith of children. During the war with Kromeshnik, Jack learns that he was once a mere mortal. But he died saving his sister. He spent the last moments of his life under the ice, where Moonface found him.
An interesting fact is that at the time of voicing Jack in the cartoon "Keepers of Dreams" Chris Pine was thirty-two years old. But the actor did a great job and gave Jack a beautiful and expressive voice.
Nick Severyanin
ImageActor Alec Baldwin dressed up as Santa Claus. His Nick Northerner is the leader of the Guardians. He lives in the north, in a castle built of ice. It is he who monitors the state of affairs, and is the first to notice Kromeshnik's traces on the map.
The creators added several distinctive features to Severyanin's image: a strong Russian accent, love for Russian music, a collection of nesting dolls and an outfit that is more suitable for Russian Santa Claus than Santa Claus.
Easter Bunny
Hugh Jackman also took part in the creation of the cartoon Rise of the Guardians. The actor voiced the Easter Bunny, one of the most famous Guardians.
This character was born in Australia, doesn't like the cold and worries that Easter might not go well. A few years ago, he held a grudge against Jack because he sent a blizzard on the day of his holiday. When the children's faith in the Guardians fades, turns into a little rabbit.
Tooth Fairy
Actress Isla Fisher gave her voice to the mythical Guardian - the Tooth Fairy. Unlike Rabbit and Northerner, the fairy works every night. She and her wards need to collect fallen children's teeth every night and replace them with coins.
The Tooth Fairy collects the teeth of all the children in a specially created palace. Fallen teeth hold memories that the fairy returns to children at important moments in life.
Sandman
The only character who did not need to pick up the voice of an actor in the cartoon "Dreamkeepers"(2012), became the Sandman. Sandman can't talk. Instead, he communicates with sand pictures he creates above his head. Often Guardians cannot understand the hero's pantomimes.
Sandman is the first Guardian. He controls the dreams of children. With the help of sand creates good and bright dreams. Has been fighting Kromeshnik for a long time.
Kromeshnik
In the cartoon "The Keepers of Dreams" (2012), actor Jude Law acted as the main antagonist of the story. Kromeshnik, he is the Boogeyman, the king of horrors and nightmares. He easily fits into the dreams of children, instills fear in them and weakens faith in the Guardians.
For many years, I saved up the strength to deliver a decisive blow to the Guardians. Kromeshnik even managed to subdue the golden sand and create an army of monsters out of it.
Jamie
The characters of the cartoon "Guardians of Dreams" are quite diverse. But not all of them have any magical power. One of the key roles went to Jamie, voiced by Dakota Goyo.
Jamie is an ordinary boy who believes in the Guardians. His faith does not weaken even at the moment of the Kromeshnik's attack. He is the first person to see Ice Jack. Thanks to Jaime, other children also believed in heroes again. This gave the Guardians strength, and they were able to deal with the Boogeyman.
