Yes, this film was first known as Guardians of Ga’Hoole, based off of the written novel series of the same name. Now it’s Legends of the Guardian, according to Animal Logic, Village Roadshow and Warner Bros Pictures. The Zack Snyder directed CGI animated feature has been mentioned here and there for the past few months, not really taking on that much steam marketing wise due to lack of things to show off, since the film is still getting the final touches for it’s inevitable release date.

Now USA Today presents to us the first five images from the upcoming feature, starring the voice talents of Hugo Weaving, Emilie de Ravin, Abbie Cornish, Sam Neill, Jim Sturgess and Helen Mirren. Soren (Sturgess), a young barn owl, is kidnapped by owls of St. Aggie’s, ostensibly an orphanage, where owlets are brainwashed into becoming soldiers. He and his new friends escape to the island of Ga’Hoole, to assist its noble, wise owls who fight the army being created by the wicked rulers of St. Aggie’s.

Legends of the Guardian, based off of the first three books in the series, comes out in theaters on September 24th. Look at the beautiful new images below.:

A couple of the most in-demand Hollywood actors, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt, are teaming up once again post-Ocean’s Thirteen. The two are the latest to lend their voices to the sequel of the Oscar winning 2006 film Happy Feet, says Movieline. They join up on the George Miller directed animated feature which already includes the voice talents of Elijah Wood, Robin Williams, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman and tons more.

Happy Feet 2, set to be released in theaters and in 3D, is prepping for a November 18th theatrical run. The feature is under Animal Logic, Village Roadshow Pictures and Kennedy Miller Productions with Warner Bros Pictures rounding up distribution. No official plot synopsis has been released yet for the animated feature.

Elijah Wood and Robin Williams sign up for the sequel to the 2006 Oscar winning animated feature Happy Feet. They both are in the middle of negotiations to reprise their respective voice roles. Wood is reprising Mumble, the penguin who can’t sing but can dance the tuxedo off of any waddler around him and Williams is back as (what else?) the hyper-acting and wise-cracking penguin Ramon; he also voices Lovelace (THR).

Director and writer George Miller is strapping himself back in those two seats for the sequel. Word on what exactly the second film will be about is still not known, but the script is reportedly finished already. Animal Logic is doing the animation for the film, that is expected to be released in 3D, which will be released on November 18th, 2011.
