(exciting music playing) - [David Tennant] This whole journey is a literal journey around the world and also sort of a metaphorical one, of the possibilities of what life can be.
- [Simon Crawford-Collins] Fogg has stayed trapped in his shell, but Passepartout has done the polar opposite, which is to just keep on moving.
They are both broken men, but broken men in very different ways.
- [Tennant] The character Fix becomes the third member of this team.
She's not playing by the masculine rules.
- She is ambitious, full of energy and drive and life.
- [Leonie Benesch] She wanted an adventure.
I don't think she knew what she was getting herself into.
(boat horn blasts) - The journey of 80 days opens him up to world.
Phileas Fogg finds a curiosity, an ambition that had been buried all his life.
So it's very uplifting.
Passepartout finds through adventure, a cause to believe in, which is the journey itself.
And also a family.
- [Benesch] Fix, she's traveling around the world as her chance to make her mark and also impress her father.
I think we all see him having to struggle with watching how his daughter is doing a better job than he ever did as a journalist, which is quite fun.
