Walt Disney Pictures has released the teaser trailer for The Princess and the Frog, the studio’s return to 2-D animation.  Check it out below.

Synopsis
After being summoned back to the Mouse House by Pixar founder John Lasseter in 2006, Alladin and Treasure Planet directors Ron Clements and John Musker join forces once again for this traditionally animated 2-D fantasy for the entire family, set in New Orleans. Former Dreamgirl Anika Noni Rose will voice the lead character Tiana, Disney’s first African-American heroine in their long heritage of fairy tale animated features. Also in the voice cast is Keith David, lending his baritone chords to the film’s villain, Dr. Facilier.

The Princess and the Frog hits theaters on  December 25, 2009.

Warner Bros. is developing a Marvin the Martian feature film that will blend live-action with CGI.  The character, created by Chuck Jones, made his first apearance in a Looney Tunes cartoon in 1948.  Steve Crystal, who will be producing the film through Alcon, pitched Warner Bros. a Christmas story with Marvin coming to Earth to destroy Christmas but being prevented from doing so when he’s trapped in a gift box. No writer or director has been signed yet.

According to Nikki FInke of DeadlineHollywoodDaily, Mike Myers has started writing Austin Powers 4.  An insider tells Finke that the movie will be an homage to Myers’ father: “It’s very personal with a father and son theme loosely based on his own life.” Myer is writing the film along with Baby Mama’s Mike McCullers, who worked with him on the successful sequels Austin Powers 2: The Spy Who Shagged Me and Austin Powers 3: Goldmember.

There’s no deal currently in place yet, but New Line is very interested in another outing in the franchise, despite Myers last box office bomb, The Love Guru.

Cyber nerd Dexter Douglas surfs the web one fateful night, gets swept into a digital techno-electro smash-up that bites him in the gigabytes and – ZAP! – goes from geek to freak. To Freakazoid!, that is, a smart- mouthing, butt-kicking, mega-voltage superhero with things to do (unless there’s something really good on TV). Things like battle super baddies Cave Guy and the Lobe, save the world from zany ETs, ditch his tubby self-appointed sidekick Fanboy, snuggle up with girlfriend Step (who disses Dexter but is looney-swooney for Freakazoid) and be home in time to scarf down Mom’s sloppy joes.  All 14 freakin’ funny Season One shows from Emmy® Award-winning series are here – enough to keep you laughing every day of the freak!
