An eccentric London inventor, Phileas Fogg (STEVE COOGAN), has
come up with the secrets to flight, electricity, and even in-line
skates, but the establishment has dismissed him as a crackpot. Desperate
to be taken seriously, Fogg makes an outlandish bet with Lord Kelvin
(JIM BROADBENT), the head of the Royal Academy of Science: to circumnavigate
the globe in no more than 80 days!
With his valet Passepartout (JACKIE CHAN) and thrill-seeking French
artist Monique (CƒCILE DE FRANCE) at his side, Fogg is headed on
a frantic, heart-pounding round-the-world race that takes our heroes
to the world's most exotic places by land, sea, and air.
Along the way, our heroes face many adventures and obstacles from
an all-star cast including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathy Bates, and
Rob Schneider. Frank Coraci ("The Wedding Singer," "The Waterboy")
helms.
