\"IsIt’s taken a couple of days for us to catch onto this big rumour floating about the interwebs. Disney veteran Floyd Norman posted a comment on The Animation Guild Blog indicating that Gary Rydstrom’s feature film directorial debut, newt<\/em>, is dead. <\/p>\n

"Oh, and "Newt" is dead." writes Norman<\/a>. When he was asked to elaborate further, he replies, "Naturally, our pals up north run a tight ship, so it’s not polite to provide details at this time." Michael of Progress City, USA<\/span><\/a> thinks that Monster’s Inc. 2<\/em> will fill that gap in the Pixar timeline.<\/p>\n

Norman also commented on The Bear and the Bow<\/em>, "However, I have had the opportunity to speak with Brenda Chapman, and I’m looking forward to her film. As far as the release date, you’ll have to wait for Disney to disclose that." <\/p>\n

In related news, Michael writes on Progress City, USA<\/span><\/a>,  <\/p>\n

"In stranger news, I’ve had two sources independently hint to me that Cars 2 is actually having production problems, and I’ve seen that rumor posted anonymously today on the Animation Guild’s blog. Whispering campaign or fact, I don’t know, but it’s something to keep an eye out for."<\/p>\n

This is all rumours at the moment and we can only wait for an official word from the Mouse or Pixar. With newt<\/em> due for release in 2012, hopefully it’s not too long.<\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
