In 1872 the London gentleman Phileas Fogg makes a bet that he can travel around the world in eighty days... a nineteenth century challenge as tough as any twenty-first century space mission. With his loyal servant, Passepartout, Mr. Fogg sets off on an astounding race against time; crossing wild oceans by steamship and dangerous continents by railroad, elephant, and even a snow sled! Yet, unknown to Phileas Fogg, the biggest threat to his winning the bet is a Scotland Yard detective called Fix who believes Mr. Fogg is a notorious bank robber. Phileas Fogg’s global race, and Fix’s manhunt, is on!
