behind the scenes produced

well-known children's comics and then on the screen.

In 2004, cartoonist Jeff Kinney began to publish some comics about naughty children on a website called FunBrain. He was at that time Perhaps it is not possible to expect that these comics are so popular that he officially published the "Little Kid's Diary" comics in 2007, and then many comics on the subject were published to form a series. Since there are such popular children's comics for all ages, how can Hollywood let it go. In March 2010, "Little Kid's Diary" (2010) appeared on the screen, and with an investment of 15 million US dollars, it won in North America. With more than 60 million US dollars in the box office, the producer 20th Century Fox has made persistent efforts and is about to present the second part of the series. Although the director has changed, the "little boys" of the starring team are still there, vowing to let the audience be in this group. The child's sparring center is willing to pay for it. Ordinarily, changing the director of a series will inevitably make people worry about the style, but for the "Little Kid Diary" series, this problem does not seem to be too worrying. On the one hand, the children responsible for making the audience happy are still the same group, on the other hand. On the one hand, this time David Bowers is by no means a general. Boworth's previous film career was mainly spent in the field of cartoons. He once participated in the story processing work of "Prince of Egypt" (1998), but he really waited to stand alone in "The Wandering Rat Country" (2006) 8 years later. In 2009, he took on the directorship of "Astro Boy" (2009), which evoked the nostalgia of the generation born in the 1970s. The film was released with mixed reputation. And this time, David Bowworth will direct his first live-action feature film, with the plot and actor foundation laid out in the front, for him, it is also the best opportunity for him to further expand his film career.

"Little Kid’s Diary 2" is adapted from the second part of the series, "Little Kid’s Diary: Roderick’s Law." Overall, in the 20th century, Foss adopted a method of arranging the story in accordance with the order and rhythm of the original book. At the same time meet the dual needs of book fans and audiences. Although when filming "Little Kid's Diary", 20th Century Fox claimed that it would continue to shoot the second film to create a series of movies. But in fact, until the box office of the first film was released, 20th Century Fox was relieved that it officially announced on May 12, 2010 that the shooting of the follow-up work had started. From August to October 2010, David Bowworth led the crew and the little ghosts for the main filming work in the UK. Everything went well, only to be released on March 25.
