“Ice Age 4” Expands Voice Cast

Never saw this one coming. Aziz Ansari, Drake, Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, Wanda Sykes, and Jeremy Renner now have voice roles in the upcoming Ice Age sequel, says THR Ice Age: Continental Drift, which will hit theaters in 2012.


The franchise also looks to expand in the media. From Deadline Hollywood:

Fox Animation Studios president Vanessa Morrison […] talked about the franchise's record-breaking success, what the growth of the franchise has meant for Fox, a Christmas TV special in November titled Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas on Fox broadcasting, a multiplayer game online, a mobile game, and a possible Ice Age On Ice touring show.”

Considering that I knew nothing of this fourth installment, this is all news to me. As one who’s becoming very tired of the Ice Age features, I hope that much of this talk about branching out into other media remains just that.
