If you haven’t seen Coraline – the spooky animated dark fantasy film based on British author Neil Gaiman’s novella and produced by American stop-motion animation studio Laika – now’s your chance. But don’t forget your 3D glasses (also available in the foyer) because it’s been remastered in 3D to mark its 15th anniversary. A creepy story about people with buttons for eyes, Coraline features the voices of Dakota Fanning, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French, our old friend Ian McShane – and Teri Hatcher who’s kindly agreed to take the reader interview.
So … what to ask? Hatcher has been a Bond girl of course, in Tomorrow Never Dies; in fact, she plays Bond’s former girlfriend whom Pierce Brosnan is sent off to seduce for information. So you can probably guess how that ends. Not well. Or if it’s celeb goss you’re after, she starred with Kevin Bacon in Christopher “Spinal Tap” Guest’s The Big Picture, Sly Stallone in buddy cop action thriller Tango & Cash, Robert Downey Jr in Soapdish and Dolly Parton in Straight Talk. On TV she’s been in episodes of Seinfeld, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Quantum Leap and Frasier and gets it on with Charlie Sheen in Two and a Half Men. There’s the tiny matter of playing Lois Lane in the 90s for four series of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Oh, and something about some sort of housewife. A desperate one, wasn’t it?
Please post your questions for Ms Hatcher below by 6pm BST on Sunday 11 August and we’ll do our best to buff up like Jesse Metcalfe mowing the lawn with his shirt off in the meantime.
• Coraline is in cinemas from 15 August.
