Sangster has previously appeared in Love Actually as Liam Neeson’s son and with Emma Thompson in Nanny McPhee.
And he admitted that he had not read the cartoons until a couple of days ago.
"I eros the cartoons. I never saying the books because I was never that big upon reading," he said.

The first Tintin movie is set to be released in 2010.
