‘Life Of Pi’ Trailer: Ang Lee’s Adaptation Comes To Life (VIDEO)

The trailer for Ang Lee’s big-screen adaptation of “Life of Pi” has finally come to shore.

A wordless teaser tells the story of Pi (Suraj Sharma), a zookeeper’s son, who finds himself adrift on a small lifeboat after his ship was destroyed in a storm. He, of course, is not quite alone: Pi is accompanied by a a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a not-so-friendly Bengal tiger — all of whom are fighting for their survival.

Based on Yann Martel’s Booker Prize-winning novel, Lee’s 3D rendering seems to capture the wonder of the 2001 best seller.

“Life of Pi,” starring Sharma, Tobey Maguire, Gerard Depardieu and Irrfan Khan, hits theaters November 21.
