Black Sheep Gets Caught UP!



Hello down there! I'm running a little behind this week on my expected Fall Movie Preview so rather than abandon you altogether, I thought I would share some very fresh pics from Pixar's next feature, UP! Details are sparse right now but I do know that Pixar's 10th feature tells the story of one Carl Frederickson, a gentleman in his seventies who travels around the world in his floating house to fight the bad guys with his boy scout type sidekick, Russell, before sitting down to dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon. In theory, it sounds ludicrous but most Pixar projects do before you see them. Carl is voiced by Ed Asner. Newcomer, Jordan Nagai will voice Russell. The picture was written by Bob Peterson (FINDING NEMO) and directed by Pete Docter (MONSTERS INC). It will be released on May 29, 2009.

Here is a first look at some of the character photos from the film, revealed at this year's Comic-Con convention in San Diego.
