[edit] Plot
It is the story of an aspiring young actress named Maggie (Paquin) who gains chameleon-like powers after she is exposed to an electrical storm and a magic rune. Her powers are from a secret and ancient race called the Chameliel, who are able to hide in plain sight due to their shape shifting abilities. Maggie and a Chamelial named Mosaic (Morrow) must battle another Chameliel named Maniken who is intent on gaining the power of his dead wife and ruling the world. [1] [2]
Mosaic was released on DVD on January 9, 2007, and had its television premiere on March 10, 2007, on Cartoon Network's Toonami. [3]

[edit] Trivia
- Anna Paquin starred as Rogue in the X-Men films, which were based on the comic book Stan Lee created.
- Stan Lee made an appearance in this movie as a security guard named "Stanley."
- At one point, Maggie is trying her powers climbing a wall and a little kid with his mother sees her climbing the walls and says, "Look, Mommy! She's like Spider-Man!" which the mother says, "You've been reading too many comic books, young man!" another one of Stan Lee's creations and a parody of his first comic book appearance as Peter tries out his powers climbing a wall and instead of saying he looks like Spider-Man the little boy says, "Look, Mommy! That man's crawling on the wall!" The mother says, "That is the last horror movie I take you to, young man!"
- The plays that Maggie performs at the beginning and the end are A Midsummer Night's Dream (she performs Puck's last lines in a local performance theater) and Hamlet both written by William Shakespeare.
- Given the open-ended conclusion of the film, there may be a possibility for a sequel or series. There are, however, no current plans for such a continuation.
- Stan Lee wrote a special comic featuring the characters from the movie.
