Big Vision Entertainment and Chambers Brothers Entertainment are going to develop and produce an animated film featuring the classic stoner duo Cheech and Chong according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Both companies acquired animated film rights to the classic Cheech and Chong library and will use those famous comedy bits to inspire "Cheech and Chong's Smokin' Animated Movie."
Lou Adler, who discovered the duo in the early 1970s, will executive produce. Eric and Branden Chambers will direct the animation .
"It's great to be doing a movie where Cheech and I never have to get out of bed or be on camera," Tommy Chong said.
"It's about time that we got animated because we've been doing animation without the animation for years," Cheech Marin said. "Whether you watch it smokin' a fattie or stone-cold sober, it's just plain funny."
The duo are in the midst of their reunion stand-up tour 'Light Up America'.
They are great together. A friend of mine saw them on stage at a tour stop and they put on a funny show...
