Gore Verbinski to direct 3D cartoon: Flawed Dogs

Flawed Dogs: The Year End Leftovers at the Piddleton “Last Chance” Dog Pound



Johnny Depp has told Disney that he would be willing to return for a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean, but now word comes that director Gore Verbinski (who helmed the three previous films) is uninterested in helming the project.

“Gore’s sick of pirates. If I wrote a scene that had to be shot on water, he’d run the other way.,” said Mars Needs Moms! author Berkeley Breathed on a recent book tour appearance.

What does he know? Berkeley and Gore have been working together to adapt Breathed’s 2003 children’s book, Flawed Dogs: The Year End Leftovers at the Piddleton “Last Chance” Dog Pound into a Computer Animated movie for Disney.

From Pulitzer Prize winning comic strip creator of Bloom County and bestselling author Berkeley Breathed.

Gore Verbinski is at it again! Not only is he leaving Pirates to do one 3D animated film (Rango), but apparently he has a second one already lined up (Flawed Dogs). Wow! That's ambitious. =^)
