Warner Bros. Set for Marvin the Martian

Movie Picture
Warner Bros. is developing Marvin the Martian at Alcon Entertainment. The project will be a blend of live action and CGI.

According to Variety, Marvin was created by Chuck Jones and made his first appearance in a Looney Tunes cartoon in 1948. The character was often intent on blowing up the Earth, only to be foiled by Bugs Bunny.

Co-producer Steve Crystal, a former Warner exec with a first-look deal at Alcon through his Charlie Co. banner, developed the pitch as a Christmas story, with Marvin coming to Earth to destroy Christmas but being prevented from doing so when he's trapped in a gift box. Alcon is looking for writers and directors.

No production date has been set.

    Sweet, we need more Looney Tunes in this day and age. I only hope we get at least a little bit of Bugs.

    Interesting thread. Got a kick out of it. Threw me back when I saw the vets gang up on one member. However... I can see why it happened.

    St Bitches... you said you thought a tattoo of Marvin is gay... so naturally anyone who has one is going to assume you're calling THEM gay. Watch how you word things.

    hmmm... funny thread.

  19. The Narrator: The Better Man

    Wow.
    Wait, I'm lost.
    What movie is "St. Bitches" from?

    As for the movie idea, sounds corny and desperate. Always liked the character, but don't know if I could stand another "Space jam".

  21. St. Bitches

    Ok now what was this article about again? Oh yeah... Marvin the Martian movie... I'll pass!

    Ohh FYI Rad... I was talking about 10 years ago.. or more really... Had two friends get the same Marvin tattoo in 1997... I just never liked them because too many people had them...Plus I design my own so I am not big on tats like those.

    i hate that f*cking movie!! not because it's a really bad movie (even though it is).. but because of the fact that some sick bastard thought that would be a good idea to put into guy's heads! :(

  29. Radimus-83

    you dare attack me for having tatoo that you say is not original "st bitches"?

    i got my tat 10 years ago when i left school for a joke. 10 years ago nobody in their right mind would get such a thing! maybe now it might be common, but i have still to see anybody with it!

    now, who the f*ck are you to come here and try having a dig at me?... who are you, GOD?
    listen up c*nt-face, just cause you have have been abused as a child you have to bring your homo abusive bad vibe onto m/w!!

    piss off you sad twat, i think you have alot more things to worry about than thinking of my body!
