Owen Wilson to Voice "Marmaduke"Posted: November 3rd, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
  Owen Wilson has signed on to voice the Great Dane "Marmaduke" for 20th Century Fox's adaptation of the long-running comic strip. Wilson's boarding is the last piece of the puzzle for the live-action/CG movie.
The story is said to have elements of Fox's "Marley & Me" (also starring Wilson), and follows a family named the Winslows who move from Kansas to Orange County with their dog Marmaduke, a slobbery pooch who creates chaos wherever he goes.
In adapting the strip created in 1954 by Brad Anderson and Phil Leeming, the script by Tim Rasmussen and Vince Di Meglio sees Marmaduke navigate a volatile Mutts vs. Pedigrees turf war, woo the purebred of his dreams and overcome a fall from grace.
Judy Greer, Lee Pace and William H. Macy play the humans, while Fergie, Emma Stone, George Lopez, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Steve Coogan, Damon Wayans, Marlon Wayans supply the voices.
The new film is directed by Tom Dey and is scheduled to hit theaters in June of next year.

Why would they want to adapt Marmaduke? It's the worst comic strip ever.

This guy's career has gone nowhere since he tried to off himself after getting dumped by Kate Hudson. Goldie's dauhgter must have some serious puss power between those legs! Wilson's batting average is nose diving while A-Rod's is going off the charts! I wonder if she's on the Yankees payroll yet?

Great detective work there Rich K about a Great Dane. Marmaduke predates Scooby Doo by what 15 years? This movie will do worse than Astro Boy.

Maybe this will be the role that pushes Owen over the edge (God willing).
