Casting For The WALLACE & GROMIT Film Is Underway!!

Hi, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab...

My nephew loves Wallace & Gromit. LOVES them. They cannot make enough Wallace & Gromit films to keep up with his deep and abiding love for the characters. When I was at Dreamworks recently, looking at all sorts of goodies for their upcoming animated films, I saw a poster for the feature-length W&G film, CURSE OF THE WERE-RABBIT. Very funny stuff, instantly recognizable as Aardman.

Check this out:

Oscar-nominated stars Helena Bonham-Carter and Ralph Fiennes will lend their voices to the first ever feature length Wallace And Gromit movie. The project, titled Curse Of The Wererabbit, will begin shooting in Bristol, England this week at Aardman Animations's studio. The movie sees the studio's popular characters Wallace and Gromit hunt down the mysterious beast which has been rampaging their village's prize marrows and potatoes just days before the giant vegetable growing contest. Helena will voice new character Lady Tottington, and Ralph will provide the sound for Lord Victor Quatermaine. Curse of the Wererabbit - with a budget in excess of $80 million - will take 18 months to make and is expected to be released in 2005.

Thanks, guys. This is definitely one to watch out for. If they pull it off and make a great W&G film, it’ll be really wonderful to behold. Can’t wait.

"Moriarty" out.
