Entertainment Weekly has this story on Jim...
OVER THE HEDGE
Silly Putty-faced Jim Carrey often seems like a human 'toon, so maybe
it's redundant for him to take a voice role in an animated feature.
Still, he'll be making his cartoon debut in ''Over the Hedge,'' a
DreamWorks feature based on the newspaper comic strip penned by
Michael Fry and T. Lewis, according to trade reports.
Carrey will play a sly raccoon named R.J. who tries to exploit the
fact that human suburbs are encroaching on his woodland habitat.
Costarring will be Garry Shandling (who played a talking pigeon
in ''Dr. Dolittle'') as an insecure turtle named Verne.
Cartoon features with wisecracking animals have done well recently --
look at Fox's ''Ice Age,'' DreamWorks' own ''Shrek,'' and ''Hedge''
director Tim Johnson's ''Antz.'' DreamWorks also has the
animated ''Sharkslayer'' due in 2004. Look for ''Hedge'' to creep
into theaters in 2005.
By the way, thanks for the pics Melanie!
