Slater will play Mulgarath, whose alter ego is Dr. Dorian Brauer. The character is described as a capital V villain who does what all ogres do: he eats people, an insatiable desire to consume. Mulgarath wants the secrets contained in Arthur Spiderwick’s Field Guide to the Natural World for a nefarious plan to satisfy his hunger.
The literary series contains five books, “The Field Guide”, “The Seeing Stone”, “Lucinda’s Secret”, “The Ironwood Tree” and “The Wrath of Mulgarath”. A spin-off series, titled “Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles”, consists of three novels: “The Nixie Song”, “A Giant Trouble” and “The Wyrm King”.
A film adaptation of the books debuted in 2008 and starred Freddie Highmore, Sarah Bolger, Mary-Louise Parker, Martin Short, Nick Nolte and Seth Rogen. Directed by Mark Waters, the film grossed $162.8 million at the box office and received generally positive reviews from critics. There has also been a video game adaptation of the books, which was released in 2008.
