If you have a young girl in your house, you're probably familiar with the American Girl series of books, which has expanded into a rather large world of books, dolls, clothes, accessories, and even retail stores centering around the characters in the American Girl series.

While there have been a few American Girl made-for-TV movies, there hasn't been one produced for the big screen, until now. Oscar® nominee Abigail Breslin stars as the title character in Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, and is backed up by an impressive cast that includes fellow Oscar nominee Joan Cusack, Stanley Tucci, Julia Ormand, Chris O'Donnell, and others.

The studio has just released some photos from the movie (one of them is featured above), and I've added them to the Photo Galleries page. Most of the primary characters are featured in the photos, so you'll get a good idea of the actors playing them and the setting for the movie.

If that's not enough to whet your appetite until the movie's July 2 opening date, be sure to check out the Trailers & Videos page, where we have both trailers for the movie in standard Quicktime format, as well as Quicktime HD and iPod-compatible versions as well!
