Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese is taking a major departure from his famously gritty movies in the upcoming 3-D adventure, 'Hugo.'

Based on the novel 'The Invention of Hugo Cabret' by Brian Selznick, 'Hugo' follows a young boy (Asa Butterfield) who encounters a number of magical adventures while living a secret life within the walls of a Paris train station. Joining him for the ride are Chloe Moretz, Jude Law, Sacha Baron Cohen and Ben Kingsley.

Sure, 'Hugo' looks and sounds nothing like, say, 'Goodfellas' or 'Taxi Driver,' but we're more than willing to see what great things Scorsese can do within a more family-friendly genre.
