Pixar releases artwork for cancelled “Newt” film
Posted by staff / September 6, 2010Pixar spends years developing its two-thumbs-up-quality animated feature films, so it surprised many movie insiders when the studio announced the cancellation of Newt, a flick already two years into development. The story of Earth’s last two blue-footed newts was announced in 2008 with an expected release date of 2012, but Pixar has cancelled the film without much explanation. Rather than brush the entire project under the rug, the studio has posted artwork from the axed film on its Facebook page.

Oh drat! I thought this was a comic film about Newt Gingrich and was eagerly anticipating the release.
