For this 20th Century Fox film, Anderson explained, "George Clooney is going to be Mr. Fox. Bill Murray has a part. Jason [Schwartzman] is doing a voice. That’s our team."
The movie is based on the Roald Dahl book for children. There are three chicken farmers that need to deal with a fox trying to feed its family.
Anderson added, "It will take a couple of years to do the animating," he added. "It’s like ‘Nightmare Before Christmas’ or those Christmas specials. These [characters] have fur, so it’s not like claymation."
