This makes me happy! I love Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and the gang.

The Peanuts gang we all know and love from Charles Schulz’s “Peanuts” comic strip will be making their big-screen debut in a CG-animated feature film in 3D. Steve Martino (‘Horton Hears a Who!’ and ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’) is directing the movie. The script is co-written by Charles Schulz’s son Craig Schulz, Schulz’s grandson Bryan Schulz, and Cornelius Uliano.

The filmmakers are keeping Peanuts’ plot details under wraps (“it’s about a round-headed kid and his dog, and that’s about as far as I’m willing to go,” says Craig). But the story will bring together the entire cast from the strips and Bill Melendez’s famous television specials, from Pig-Pen to Peppermint Patty.

Additions include the unveiling of Charlie Brown’s lifelong crush, known only as “The Little Red-Haired Girl.” Martino is excited about exploring the Peanuts world with detailed animation (“We’ll see that Snoopy has soft-white fur”) and exploring traditionally imagined realms such as Snoopy’s World War I fighter-pilot adventures.

Producer Paul Feig calls the 3-D “effortless” and says everyone is working to ensure that the “sweet optimism” of the original material remains. “Snoopy will not be rapping, no one will be twerking, we’re in good hands,” he says. – Via USA Today
