VIDEO: Brad Pitt -- The Newest Animated Superhero
Aug. 18 2009, Published 2:01 p.m. ET
Brad Pitt told The Today Show on Tuesday that he will play a "superhero who wants out" in an animated feature superhero film to entertain his six kids.
"It's just something they'll enjoy -- and that's cool," he told Anne Curry, referencing children Maddox, 8; Pax, 5; Zahara, 4; Shiloh, 3; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 1.
The film, tentatively titled Oobermind, is a project from DreamWorks Animation and Madagascar co-director Tim McGrath; Tina Fey and Will Ferrell also lend their voices to the film, which is slated for a November 2010 release.
Pitt's next film, Inglorious Basterds, opens Friday.
