Secret of Moonacre Exclusive Clip

As if we weren't already spoiling you lot with exclusive content today, we have an exclusive clip from new fantasy film The Secret of Moonacre, based on JK Rowling's favourite children's book and directed by Bridge to Terabithia's Gabor Csupo.

The story sees orphan Maria Merryweather (The Golden Compass' Dakota Blue Richards) being sent to live with her uncle (Ioan Gruffudd). There, she learns about an old family feud with a neighbouring clan, the De Noirs (led by Tim Curry) but teams up with their son Robin (Augustus Prew) to find the missing pearls that are the cause of the feud.

This particular clip gives you a good idea of the rather lovely design work in the film, but given that it revolves around the rediscovery of said pearls, it's maybe a little spoilerific if you're worried about such things. Rest assured however that there's plenty more intrigue and mystery beyond this scene in the roots of a tree.

The Secret of Moonacre is out on Friday 6 February - check our Future Films section for more information on the film, or read an on-set interview with Ioan Gruffudd here.
