Owen Wilson to voice Marmaduke in upcoming animated movie
Marmaduke movie enlists Owen Wilson
Owen Wilson will voice the big lummox of a dog, Marmaduke, in the new animated film based on the classic comic-strip dog for 20th Century Fox. Wilson joins Fergie, the lovely Emma Stone, George Lopez, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Steve Coogan, Damon and Marlon Wayans.
Marmaduke will follow the Winslow who family who moves from Kansas to beautiful Orange County, CA with their jerk of dog that constantly gets into trouble. Our favorite dog lands in the middle of a turf-war between the Mutts and the Pedigrees who attempt to woo the idiot to their respective side.
The story was penned by License to Wed writing team, Tim Rasmussen and Vince Di Meglio and directed by Tom Dey (Shanghai Noon).
This isn’t the first voice-work Wilson has signed on to. He also provided the voice for Disney Pixar’s Lightning McQueen in Cars.
Marmaduke will hit theaters during the summer of 2010.
