Wes Anderson's making a stop-motion animated movie

Huh. This is interesting. (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i941d9308f5a91e2ef0b5c7e81692a04d) I'm not entirely surprised.

Hollywood Reporter:

George Clooney is in negotiations and Cate Blanchett is in talks to voice the lead characters in Wes Anderson's "The Fantastic Mr. Fox." The stop-motion film, marking Anderson's first foray into animation, is expected to be distributed by 20th Century Fox as a negative pickup.

Produced by Scott Rudin Prods., "Mr. Fox" is an adaptation of Roald Dahl's classic children's story, centering on a clever fox who must outwit three mean, dimwitted farmers who try their hardest to hurt Mr. Fox and his family. Clooney would voice Mr. Fox, while Blanchett would voice his wife.

He seems like a nice enough fellow. He was actually okay in SCANNER DARKLY.

I think Corpse Bride was the most recent full-length stop motion movie, I think.
