When news first broke of a CG take of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts gang, I was hesitant toward the idea. We’ve been groomed to automatically dislike animated reboots because the majority of the ones we’ve had have been lackluster and failed to reach the greatness of the original properties. But we have no reason to worry here.
Since the film’s not releasing until 2015, this brief teaser shown during Good Morning America doesn’t show much, but it looks fabulous. Just look at that animation! The new movie is said to be respectful toward the original comic (going so far as to use Bill Melendez’s voiceover work for Snoopy and Woodstock), so I honestly can’t wait.
Peanuts hits theaters November 6th, 2015.
