Igor Swaps Actor’s VoicesBy Jason Morgan: 2007-07-26 11:23:31
The real news concerning Igor, the Weinstein Co.’s computer-animated monster movie, is that some guy you wouldn’t recognize, Eddie Izzard, has replaced another guy you haven’t heard of, Jeremy Piven as the insane Schadenfreude, Igor’s arch-nemesis. However, the more interesting news tidbit is that the movie has been thumbed by the production company, Exodus Film Group, for comic books based on the movie, published by IDW Publishing, reports The Hollywood Reporter.
While comic book film adaptations are a dime a dozen, you don’t hear much about movies making the transition to comic books. The comic books will follow the film’s story line of the hunch-backed lab assistant’s plot to win the Evil Science Fair, which features the voices of John Cusack, Steve Buscemi, John Cleese, Jennifer Coolidge, Arsenio Hall, Jay Leno, Molly Shannon and Sean Hayes. Apparently, comic book adaptations of films and television shows are IDW’s bread and butter. The company currently publishes Hasbro's "Transformers," Fox's "24" and CBS' "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" to comic pages. For Igor the company will mimic the c.g. look of the film, as it has done with Monster House and will do for Beowulf.
