Big B Signs Up For Toon Movie

We have seen him in various avatars. He has been the Shahenshah, Sexy Sam, Anthony etc. But now superstar Amitabh Bachchan has gone a step further in his bid to reinvent himself. This time he will be seen on screen as a cartoon character.

It is believed that the Big B has signed a deal with an animation company for a cartoon movie. The movie is expected to hit the screen in the next one year. It will be a full-length feature film with a cartoon character based on the Big B. The superstar has been giving a lot of ideas and the script is taking shape. But the production house is yet to find a director for the venture.

The agreement has been signed with the Thiruvananthapuram Toonz Academy, which co-produced the recent Hanuman Returns. Bachchan is said to be very gung-ho about the production and was quite involved in the look of the character in film which will be based on him.

Well, after Priyanka Chopra designed a toon character for Virgin Comics and Shah Rukh Khan lent his voice for the Hindi version of The Unbreakables, the race to leave an animated footprint is on in full earnest.
