Sophie Nélisse As Liesel Meminger Dominates First 'The Book Thief' Movie Poster

Seldom do we see that a movie poster dominantly features a virtually unheard of actor. The like of which is reminiscent of a variant poster of The Golden Compass where it featured Dakota Blue Richards as Lyra Belacqua, until such time of course that other posters, especially the theatrical one, came out with most of the main cast in it.

This is the same fate that happened with the very first poster of The Book Thief and it's actually nice to see some fresh faces on these one sheets. If you are one of us who grows tired of repetitive box office actors in new movie posters, then this could be a breather for you.

Check out the first movie poster of The Book Thief, featuring Sophie Nélisse as Liesel Meminger. Courage beyond words...

Synopsis

While subjected to the horrors of WWII Germany, young Liesel finds solace by stealing books and sharing them with others. Under the stairs in her home, a Jewish refuge is being sheltered by her adoptive parents.
