A film by Joss Whedon, directed by Steven Spielberg: Everworld.

*queue famous voiceover guy*

In a world of the immortals, the gods and legends of ancient times, Loki, the Trickster has grown weary and vows to return...to our world.

Senna Wales, a powerful, yet mysterious young girl is Loki's key. She can open the portal between our worlds...or bring Everworld to its knees.

In his haste, what Loki did not count on would be four young people;
Senna's boyfriend, Davin Levin, the broody new guy in town
Senna's ex-boyfriend Christopher Hitchcock, the wise cracking alcoholic.
Senna's half-sister April O'Brien, the aspiring actress who loathes her half sister and believes Senna's mere existence destroyed her family.
And Jalil Sherman, an amazingly intelligent young man that Senna has tortured for his OCD,

would be sucked into Everworld with her. Now, these four brave souls will journey through Ancient Egypt, Mount Olympus, Atlantis, The Land of the Vikings, Medieval England, and the Land of the Aztecs; all the while trying to find Senna and a way home, all the while trying to survive...EVERWORLD.

Ebert and Ropert give Everworld two thumbs up. A must see for anyone who's ever seen a movie.

Rolling Stone calls Everworld "the greatest movie ever made. Seriously"

No animals were harmed in production of this film...but Ben Stiller was run over by a forklift...many times.

Thanks Fishy.

Character Bios:

Loki - Trickster God of the Norse. Captures Senna to help him open the portal back to our world.

Senna Wales - Witch; born to an adulterous relationship, left with her father and his shocked family by her mother Anica. Manipulates others well and is out to take over Everworld herself.

David Levin - New guy in town. Immediately falls for Senna. The brave, noble type most out to save her.

April O'Brien - Aspiring actress and half sister to Senna. Blames Senna for her father's affair and has no interest in saving Senna; only getting home.

Christopher Hitchcock - Senna's ex who drinks too much and is the wise cracking smart ass everyone loves to hate. Fights with his alcoholic tendencies throughout the story.

Jalil Sherman - intelligent student with a hand washing OCD that only Senna knows about after she caught him. Tortured by her, he is less concerned with finding and saving her, but is more interested in figuring out how Everworld exists in the first place.

Merlin - wise old wizard that aides the gang in the land of the Aztecs and leads them to Gallahad for assistance. He is secretly after Senna himself.

Hel - petulant daughter of Loki and ruler of the land of her namesake. She more than anyone in Everworld is out to destroy our heroes. Half of her body is so beautiful no man can resist her, the other half is rotting corpse that revolts all.

Gallahad - noble knight that aides our heroes. Is immediately taken with April, as is she in return.

Etain - Irish girl the heroes encounter in ancient Eire. Starts a burgeoning relationship with Christopher and helps him with his personal demons.

This is all based on a book series by K. A. Applegate I read about ten years ago.
