The guys at Aardman are really busy, you have to appreciate the amount of work that goes into one of these movies and how long the whole process takes. So after we see Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit and then Flushed Away, be prepared for this little gem, story from the BBC:
Monty Python star John Cleese is writing the next feature film for Aardman Animations, the makers of Wallace and Gromit have announced. Aardman co-founder Peter Lord said the Fawlty Towers actor was currently writing the “pre-historic comedy”.
“It will be great comedy adventure about a pre-historic culture clash between two tribes, one comparatively evolved tribe, and one un-evolved tribe,” he said. “Some might consider one tribe might be the English, and some might consider that the other to be the French, the Gauls. “Let’s just say it’s the start of the Entente Cordial and it explains why the English Channel is there.”
Sounds superb, and a great mix of talents here. Cleese, Aardman and Dreamworks. The only problem is the amount of time it will take to get it to the big screen! We’re awaiting two of their movies and already I’m anticipating the third!
