Yogi Bear Live Action on the Way

All aboard the remake train, the latest kids movie to be given the gee whiz modern computer animated treatment is gonna be Yogi Bear by the folks over at Warner Brothers. Take that shot to your pickernick baskets! The movie is set to be a live action / cgi hybird ala Alvin and the Chipmunks. Apparently in mind for the voice of the jellystone resident – Dan Akroyd, with Justin Timberlake as Boo Boo. For good measure hottie Anna Faris has been added to the mix as a sexy nature documentarian. Funny, I don’t remember THAT in the cartoon.

Faris will play a nature documentarian who follows the antics of a bear in fictional Jellystone Park. Aykroyd will voice Yogi, and Timberlake could end up lending his pipes for Yogi’s constant companion, Boo Boo.

Jon Berg is overseeing for the studio, which hopes to get “Yogi” under way in New Zealand in December. Brad Copeland penned the current script with Joshua Sternin and Jeff Ventimilia writing the original draft.

Faris, last seen in front of the cameras with “Observe and Report,” recently has been lending her voice for such animated fare as “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” and “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel.”

Here’s a nice bonus pick taken by a smarter then the average bear.
