Give me a movie with the Easter Bunny, lots of candy and…James Marsden and I’m interested! Hop hits movie theaters April 1, 2011 with a cast that includes James Marsden, Russell Brand, Kaley Cuoco, Hank Azaria, Gary Cole, Elizabeth Perkins, David Hasselhoff, Chelsea Handler and Hugh Laurie.
Blending state of the art animation with live action, Hop is a comedy about E.B. (voiced by Russell Brand), the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. On the eve of taking over the family business, E.B. leaves for Hollywood in pursuit of his dream of becoming a drummer. He encounters Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker with his own lofty goals, who accidentally hits E.B. with his car. Feigning injury, E.B. manipulates Fred into providing him shelter, and Fred finds himself with the world’s worst house guest.
You can watch the trailer here, and I promise you will never look at jelly beans the same again. You can also like the film on Facebook and have fun with the candy drop, games, downloads and activity sheets on the film’s website. Hop looks like a cute movie and I’ll share more with you as soon as I can!
The film is helmed by Tim Hill, director of the blockbuster Alvin and the Chipmunks and produced by Chris Meledandri’s Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me).
