Mrs Peppercorn's Magical Reading Room

Mrs Peppercorn's Magical Reading Room is a 24-minute fantasy/magical short film directed by Mike Lè Han.

In March 2011, the film premiered at Bafta[1][2][3][4][5] in London, then in August of the same year, was requested by Walt Disney Animation Studios to screen at their Burbank facility in Los Angeles.

In May 2013, Variety reported that a teen fantasy film loosely based on the short film, titled The Peppercorn Chronicles, was in development, with Lè Han directing the film and co-writing the script with his wife Helen.

The film was to be produced by Martina Cole’s production company Black Lake, with Cole serving as executive producer, and production was expected to begin in February 2014 in the United States and Hungary.

Jodelle Ferland, Noah Ringer and Michael Eklund were signed on to star in the film, which was intended to be the first in a film trilogy titled Peppercorn.
