Commenting on the announcement, Breier said, “There is no better venue to experience Jerry Bruckheimer’s first film in Disney Digital 3D than here at the El Capitan Theatre.  ‘G-Force’ is a fantastic film for families and moviegoers of all ages, and seeing it flawlessly projected in state-of-the-art digital 3D at the El Capitan will add to the fun and fantasy.  We’ve also had a blast creating ‘The G-Force Experience,’ where our guests can feel like they’re a part of the G-Force team.  This is a unique interactive environment that offers lots of great entertainment, and helps to make seeing films at the El Capitan such a wonderful and rewarding experience.”
Among the highlights of “The G-Force Experience:”

  • Activities include deciphering the code to access the G-FORCE Cyber Network Databanks, plotting a spy map for the G-FORCE team, crushing unstoppable digital bugs, annihilating miscreant Gizmos, and taking the G-FORCE Training Course to become a member of the G-FORCE Special Forces!
  • See real props direct from the movie, and two actual sets from G-FORCE.
  • Go behind-the-scenes with a unique G-FORCE art exhibit.

Directed by Academy Award®-winning visual effects master Hoyt H. Yeatman, Jr. (“Armageddon,” “The Rock,” “Con Air”), “G-Force” takes audiences on a high-octane thrill ride, that proves once and for all that the world needs bigger heroes.  Producer Jerry Bruckheimer’s first 3-D film focuses on a covert government program – a FBI team of guinea pigs! Armed with the latest high-tech spy equipment, these highly trained guinea pigs discover that the fate of the world is in their paws. The power packed G-FORCE includes Darwin (voice of SAM ROCKWELL), the squad leader determined to succeed at all costs; Blaster (voice of TRACY MORGAN), an outrageous weapons expert with tons of attitude and a love for all things extreme; and Juarez (voice of PENELOPE CRUZ), a sexy martial arts pro; plus a star-nosed mole, Speckles (voice of NICOLAS CAGE), the computer and information specialist.
