“The challenging journey to bring this extraordinary story to the screen has finally been rewarded with the opportunity to partner with the brilliant team at Aniventure and Cinesite,” said Serkis. “Together we hope to make our version of Orwell’s ever-relevant masterpiece emotionally powerful, humorous and relatable for all ages. A story not only for our time, but for generations to come.”
connie thompson (“Frankenweenie,” “Despicable Me 2”) will produce alongside adam nagle (“Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank”, “HITPIG”), Dave Rosenbaum (“Secret Life of Pets”) and Jonathan Cavendish from Imaginarium. (“Bridget Jones’s Diary”, “Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle”) and Serkis.
Added Nagle: “Since 1945, when George Orwell first published ‘Animal Farm,’ the story has remained relevant and a key tool in understanding how the world works. Andy has had a special talent for creating unique and memorable characters during his remarkable career and we are thrilled to be working with him, Jonathan and Cinesite to adapt Animal Farm for modern audiences.”
“Rebelion on the farm” has had a number of adaptations in the 77 years since it was published, including a live-action hybrid CGI version in 1999, starring the voices of Kelsey Grammer, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Patrick Stewart. There was also an animated version of the book that was released in 1954 as an anti-communist propaganda film.
