“Instant Karma” Goes Hybrid Route for Sony Pictures Animation

According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog, Instant Karma will be distributed by Sony Pictures Animation; it was initially set for New Line Cinema back in 2003 and has been set there since, but Sony just snagged the rights.

“The tale follows a misguided safecracker from New Orleans through his life lessons from a near-death experience only to find himself reincarnated as a fly. As the hero does good deeds to improve his karma, he moves up the food chain through a variety of animals, such as a frog, raccoon and dog, trying to get back to his human body and the woman he loves.”
