All Snoopy fans have something awesome to look forward to in the Winter of 2015, because the renowned comic strip character is coming to life… well let’s just say its entering a whole new dimension altogether.
The thought of a new Peanuts animated film so many years after the death of creator Charles Schulz may have initially felt like an afterthought, but the first look we got at the movie earlier this year seems like the project could actually work.
The trailer is a more complex and beautiful animated Peanuts world than we’ve never seen before, but it still retails the original comic strip’s charm and distinctive style.
There are still no real plot details to be garnered here, but that’s by design; the team behind the film has been tight-lipped about it ever since it was first announced. Fortunately for those skeptical of the first Peanuts film in 35 years, Charles Schulz’s son Craig and his son Bryan are producing and penning the new movie, so there’s reason to believe they’ll be able to capture the spirit of what made the original cartoon such an enduring classic. The Peanuts Movie is set to hit theaters on 6 November, 2015.
The trailer shows Snoopy dreaming and contending with an army of mischievous Woodstocks decorating his doghouse. Sure, the Vince Guaraldi “Linus and Lucy” theme makes an appearance – but so does a fairly generic pop song.
For the first time ever, Snoopy, Charlie Brown and the rest of the gang we know and love from Charles Schulz’s timeless “Peanuts” comic strip will be making their big-screen debut; like they’ve never been seen before in a CG-Animated Feature film in 3D.
