First Look At Pixar's Brave

Pixar, its a name that is synonymous with quality. Almost every movie they release is both critically and universally embraced, with little exception.

Well they're hoping to continue the trend with the upcoming Brave and today is the day they've released the first glimpse of the red-headed lead character.

The plot details are as follows:

The rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland serve as the backdrop for Brave, a new tale that joins the lands ancient lore, stories of epic battles and mystical legends passed down for generations. Directed by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and produced by Katherine Sarafian, Brave is the grand adventure of Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald), a skilled archer who confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts to discover the true meaning of courage. The film also features the voices of Emma Thompson, Billy Connolly, Julie Walters, Kevin McKidd, Craig Ferguson and Robbie Coltrane.

I've shown the image below in three forms (courtesy of /film), one comparing the actual release with the concept art, a close up and the image itself.

Its a little nerdy but if you're anything like me then you'll like to know how these things come to life. I think its interesting, you may not, but either way its good that a new Pixar movie is well on the way.
