Talking animals are back in a big way for animated movies. With Over The Hedge about to arrive, farm ‘toon Barnyard due this summer and Christmas seeing the arrival of the penguins in Happy Feet, you might think that all the stories about chatting critters would be taken.

Not so. IDT thinks it’s found an idea worth herding on to the screen with Sheepish, a tale of a wolf who goes against the code of his pack and is cursed to become a sheep.

The movie will be co-directed by Saul Blinkoff and Elliott Bour, two former Disney animators who recently helmed Emperor’s New Groove DVD sequel Kronk’s New Groove. The script is by Bert Coughlin, who worked on the character animation for Shrek.
