AICN and MTV's Movie Blog score the first production still from Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are. Looks just about perfect.

The vocal cast for Where the Wild Things Are fills out, with Benicio Del Toro, Michael Berry Jr., Paul Dano, Tom Noonan, Catherine O'Hara, Forest Whitaker and Michelle Williams joining in Spike Jonze's after-bedtime shenanigans.

Catherine Keener joins Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are, which looks set to go, as Max's Mom (and the instigator of his adventures in the Wild kingdom.)

Genre director update: As if their Willy Wonka wasn't creepy-serial-killer enough, Tim Burton and Johnny Depp will soon reunite for Sweeney Todd, the demon barber of Fleet Street. Meanwhile, the Spike Jonze-Dave Eggers interpretation of Where the Wild Things Are lands at Warner Bros. Says author Maurice Sendak of the project: "I am in love with it. If Spike and Dave do not do this movie now, I would just as soon not see any version of it ever get made."
