Warner Brothers Cancels 3D "Happy Feet"

by | September 6, 2006 | Comments

It was reported today that Warner Brothers has canned their 3D IMAX version of the tap-dancing penguin animated comedy "Happy Feet" for unknown reasons. IMAX Corporation had announced last October that the 3D version of the film would be released, however that is no longer the case. A 2D IMAX version of the film will still be released, but Warner Brothers has cancelled the 3D version.

"Happy Feet" features the voices of Robin Williams, Elijah Wood, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Brittany Murphy, and Hugo Weaving all as penguins in a comical adventure about a tap dancing penguin named Mumble. The 3D trailer for the 3D IMAX version already showed in front of "Superman Returns" 3D earlier this year. The full 2D versions of "Happy Feet" will be in theaters nationwide on November 17th.
