Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Deadline's Mike Fleming has the scoop on Tim Burton's next animated film, a stop motion feature length version of his super fun short film FRANKENWEENIE, about a boy who resurrects his dog.
Looks like Burton will be joined by many of his regulars, including Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Martin Landau and Martin Short. It makes me sad that Glenn Shadix recently died as I have a feeling there would have been a place for him in this world.
I really dig Burton's short, starring the very '80s kid Barret Oliver as the young man who brings his dog back to life after it get hit by a car and I kind of love Burton tackling stop motion again using that jumping off point. Perhaps it'll be a return to form for the man. The cast sure is.
What do you folks think?
