Artemis Fowl is Disney’s first movie released during the pandemic. It’s a science fantasy adventure family film based on the beloved 2001 teen novel by Eoin Colfer. The story follows the journey of 12-year-old genius Artemis Fowl as he finds himself in a battle of strength and cunning against a powerful, hidden race of fairies who may be behind his father’s disappearance. Artemis Fowl is directed by Kenneth Branagh from a screenplay co-written by Conor McPherson and Hamish McColl and is released on Disney+ today. I have caught up with Lara McDonnell to get some behind-the-scenes insights into this exciting action movie.
