Glen Keane Roped In To Direct Animated Movie ‘Over the Moon’

Glen Keane has been tapped in to helm Pearl Studio’s animated ‘Over the Moon’ as a world premiere film exclusively for Netflix. ‘Over the Moon’ is a musical adventure feature film and revolves around a girl who builds a rocket ship and lands on moon in hopes of meeting a legendary Moon Goddess. The movie will have a theatrical release in China by 2020. It will release all over the world by Netflix in the same year.

The movie will be written by Audrey Wells, while Gennie Rim, who produced ‘Dear Basketball’, will produce the flick. Janet Yang will serve as the executive producer. Christopher Curtis, Marjorie Duffield and Helen Park will pen the lyrics for the songs.

“‘Over the Moon’ has just such a heroine as its centerpiece. The compelling script by Audrey Wells has tremendous heart and humor that called to me and I had to respond. I’m honored to bring this story to life alongside my producer Gennie Rim. We are both looking forward to creating a wonderful film and partnership with Melissa Cobb at Netflix and Peilin Chou at Pearl Studio,” said Keane. Glena along with retired basketball superstar Kobe Bryant was also nominated for Oscars for short film ‘Dear Basketball’.
