IMPA has an international poster for Arthur Christmas.Alan Tudyk talks to Coming Soon about his role in the upcoming Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter:
"I'm Abe Lincoln's political foil. Historically, Stephen Douglas was initially engaged to Mary Todd, who became Abe's wife. They were fellow Senators and they battled it out for the presidency. Stephen Douglas was a flip flopper. He started out his career being opposed to slavery, then he married someone with a plantation and saw all of the money coming in – it was then politically expedient to be pro-slavery... Whenever there's a political statement to be made, Stephen wanders into the movie to represent the other side. Also, historically, Stephen Douglas worked closely with vampires to realize his political ambitions."
