Escape to Witch Mountain Staring Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson

Kim Richards and Ike Eisenmann Are Playing in Race to Witch Mountain

Many Disney movies have been redone to master great films with newer technology; one of these films is no other than Escape to Witch Mountain. Escape to Witch Mountain is being redone in the film Race to Witch Mountain. The original film cast Kim Richards as Tia, the girl who could open doors with her mind and talk to animals. Along side Kim Richards was her costar Ike Eisenmann who played Tony, a young boy who possessed the ability of telekinesis.

The new Disney film Race to Witch Mountain will have both Richards and Eisenmann playing a small part in the film as a roadhouse waitress and sheriff. Many are waiting to view the film as Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson will be playing a lead roll.

Escape to Witch Mountain has been a long time favorite of mine ever since I was a child. When the film was redone in 1995 and directed by Peter Radar, it sent out the emotions that many had had as a child when they had watched the film for the first time.

Race to Witch Mountain is supposed to be a remake of Escape to Witch Mountain with more detail and added skits. The director Andy Fickman has stated that the new film has a lot more action than the previous ones had.

I am pumped up just like many for the release of this film. The family oriented film, Escape to Witch Mountain, was one of the best that Disney had made and waiting impatiently for the new film Race to Witch Mountain to arrive is like telling my two year old to not touch anything in the middle of a candy store, I want a piece of the action and can't wait.

With stars like Dwayne Johnson and the original actors playing in it, it is sure to be a great production. Like many, I was enthused to hear that Kim Richards and Ike Eisenmann who be playing a part in the film. It will be good to see Kim Richards once again since the last film that she played in was Black Snake Moan. Even though Kim Richards will only be playing a small part in Race to Witch Mountain, it seems that she is all too thrilled about the film.

Race to Witch Mountain is scheduled to release on March 19, 2009 but for those who simply can't wait to view the film can go out and buy the movie Escape to Witch Mountain to see what it is all about.

Annasophia Robb will be playing the part that Kim Richards once played and Alexander Ludwig will be playing the part of the boy with the paranormal powers that Ike Eisenmann once played.
