Jamie Foxx is set to lend his voice to a new animated movie from 20th Century Fox called “Welcome to the Jungle.” He’s also one of the people who pitched the story idea to the studio and will be one of the film’s producers. This will be Foxx’s first animated movie, which is surprising, since he’s been a star in Hollywood for a lot of years. “Welcome to the Jungle” is expected to come out in 2012.
And speaking of Fox’s, I saw “Fantastic Mr. Fox” for the third time the other night, this time on my new Blu-ray player. The movie, of course, was great, but before the film there’s a trailer for “Marley and Me: The Terrible Twos.”
I don’t know how any film could be more terrible than the original, and I was worried that this second “Marley” was going to be released in theaters, meaning I’d have to see it. Thank goodness it’s a direct-to-DVD release.
