    Chris Costello’s Papyrus is used for the logo of The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course. The lockup features a taller T and a wider C. Similar forms are included in the font as alternates, but those aren’t a perfect match. Furthermore, the H was lowered. Papyrus is combined with Helvetica Compressed for “Collision Course”. The poster typography additionally features Compacta Black.

    From Wikipedia:

    The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course is a 2002 adventure comedy film based on the nature documentary television series The Crocodile Hunter. It stars the late Steve Irwin and his wife Terri Irwin and was directed by frequent Irwin collaborator John Stainton. The film was released in between the fourth and fifth seasons of the series. Collision Course follows Steve and Terri who attempt to save a crocodile from “poachers” not knowing that the two men are actually American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) agents who are after them because the crocodile in the Irwins’ possession has accidentally swallowed an important satellite tracking beacon.
