From The Hollywood Reporter: Cheech and Chong get animated

Cheech and Chong are smokin'. Well, obviously.

As their reunion stand-up tour Cheech & Chong Light Up America fires out nationwide, Big Vision Entertainment said it will produce an animated film featuring the stoned duo with Chambers Bros. Entertainment.

The two companies have acquired animated film rights to the classic Cheech and Chong library held by music producer and Ode Records owner Lou Adler and will use those famous comedy bits to inspire "Cheech and Chong's Smokin' Animated Movie."

Big Vision founder and CEO Houston Curtis will produce along with Keith, Branden and Eric Chambers, who devised the concept. Adler, who discovered the duo in the early 1970s, will executive produce. Eric and Branden Chambers will direct the animation.

The ICM-repped Big Vision, which focuses on direct-to-DVD special-interest material, will finance the project.

In the '70s and '80s, Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong released several top-selling comedy albums and starred in six films, including "Up in Smoke" and "Still Smokin'."

"It's great to be doing a movie where Cheech and I never have to get out of bed or be on camera," Chong said.

"It's about time that we got animated because we've been doing animation without the animation for years," Marin said. "Whether you watch it smokin' a fattie or stone-cold sober, it's just plain funny."

From Cinema Blend:
If There's A New Cheech And Chong Movie, Cheech Will Direct

“Actually, if we do the next Cheech and Chong movie I’m going to direct that.” He added, “They’re still writing it right now. Tommy’s doing most of the writing because we’ve decided to divvy up the chores.”

Saw the trailer for this earlier. I normally like Cheech and Chong, but this looks like utter s**t.

New Cheech & Chong Movie in the Works

Tommy Chong tells CelebStoner that he and his comedy partner Cheech Marin are currently working with Super Troopers director Jay Chandrasekhar on the next Cheech & Chong movie.

"He's working a script right now for us," Chong explains. "We've had some preliminary meetings. It looks really good. It looks really funny. It will be about us going to a festival called the Burning Joint. All sorts of shenanigans happen. It's going to be a lot of fun."

The classic stoner comedy duo hooked up with Chandrasekhar thanks to Marin's manager Ben Fagen. "They came at us with a rough idea and now they're fleshing it out and making it into a budgetable script," Chong adds. "We could start shooting this summer."

It would be the first real Cheech & Chong movie since Still Smokin in 1983.

Last year, they were featured in Cheech & Chong's Animated Movie - a fun flick based on their early '70s comedy skits. "It was not done with our involvement," Chong says. "They animated the old records. I thought for what they had it was great. We didn't have to write anything. All Cheech and I had to do was look at it and go yea or no. I liked it."

Chandrasekhar has directed, co-written and co-starred in Super Troopers, Club Dread and Beerfest, and is part of the Broken Lizard comedy troupe. Cheech & Chiong and Chandrasekhar is a match made in stoner-movie heaven.
