Jack and the Beanstalk: The Real Story
Jack and the Beanstalk: The Real Story is a 2001 American television miniseries directed by Brian Henson. A co-production of Hallmark Entertainment and The Jim Henson Company, it is based on the classic English tale "Jack and the Beanstalk". The story was considerably reworked to reflect what Henson believed to be a more ethical, humanist view. The cast includes Matthew Modine as the modern-day descendant of Jack, Mia Sara as a mysterious woman attempting to bring him to justice for the murder of a giant, Jon Voight as the descendant's greedy manager intending to inherit the company, Vanessa Redgrave as an elderly relative of the descendant, and Richard Attenborough, Daryl Hannah, and James Corden as giants. The series aired on CBS from December 2 to December 4, 2001. Among the other giants in the film are beings from various cultures including Hebrew, Buddhist, and Nordic.
