Aaugh! You're a good man, Charlie Brown, but Twentieth Century Fox pulled the football out from under you and announced the voice casting for THE PEANUTS MOVIE today. The Great Houndini reports, "It was a dark and stormy night..."
Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Linus and the rest of the cherished "Peanuts" gang will make their long awaited big-screen debut in stunning state of the art 3D animation.
Snoopy, the world's most lovable beagle - and flying ace - embarks upon his greatest mission as he takes to the skies to pursue his arch-nemesis The Red Baron, while his best pal, Charlie Brown, begins his own epic quest.
From the imagination of Charles M. Schulz and the creators of the Ice Age films, good grief, THE PEANUTS MOVIE is more than just a chip off the ole BlockHead, it's a doggone cinematic spectacle.
