About Arthur and the Invisibles

Arthur and the Minimoys (French: Arthur et les Minimoys) is a 2006 English-language French live-action animated fantasy adventure film directed and co-written by Luc Besson. It is based on the first two books of the Arthur children's book series by Besson. Arthur and the Minimoys was released theatrically in France on 29 November 2006 by EuropaCorp. With a budget of €60 million, it was the most expensive French film ever produced at the time. It grossed $46 million at the French box office. The film's soundtrack album was released in 2007. For its US release, The Weinstein Company edited the film, cutting the running time by nine minutes, adding narration and reducing the sexual innuendo. It was released under the title Arthur and the Invisibles. This version received generally negative reviews from critics, and grossed $15 million in the US, with a worldwide total for both versions of $108 million. The film's success in France spawned a franchise, including two sequels, Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard (2009) and Arthur 3: The War of the Two Worlds (2010), a spin-off film, Arthur, malédiction (2022), multiple video games, an animated television series, and theme park attractions at Futuroscope and Europa-Park.
