The Smurfs movie is finally official as Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation announced their involvement. The studios will develop a live action/animated movie based on the classic cartoon franchise.
David Stem and David Weiss are in negotiations to write the screenplay. They previously wrote Shrek 2 and 3, The Rugrats Movie and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius.
Running as part of NBC’s Saturday-morning lineup from 1981-1990, the cartoon was a huge success, winning two Daytime Emmy Awards and running for 256 episodes.
