The voice cast has three Oscar winners (Benicio Del Toro, Marion Cotillard and Jeff Bridges) and four Oscar nominees (Albert Brooks, Paul Giamatti, James Francoand Rachel McAdams). Thanks to the director Mark Osborne's emotionally engaging pitch and the global popularity of Saint-Exupéry's book, a group of A-list actors could be recruited to lend their voices to the film's characters. It began with Jeff Bridges; he was the first and only choice to play the Aviator, so after much time trying to get to him, Osborne finally got to go to his home in Santa Barbara to talk to him directly. The pitch blew away bridges, putting them on the road to assembling the perfect cost.
"The Little Prince" (2015) became the most successful French animated film ever, grossing $97 million worldwide.
