ROCKY & BULLWINKLE Film Short Coming in 2014 from DreamWorks

DreamWorks Animation is giving audiences a dose of nostalgia in 2014 with an all new Rocky & Bullwinkle short film featuring the legendary June Foray as the voice of Rocket "Rocky" J. Squirrel. This original and updated short will bring everyone's favorite moose and squirrel back to the hearts of fans around the world while introducing the duo to a new generation. Also in 2014, the studio will release Mr. Peabody & Sherman on March 7, reintroducing characters who initially appeared on the original "Rocky & Bullwinkle Show."

"For an incredible 83 years, June Foray has left a tremendous imprint on the entire entertainment industry," said Executive Producer Tiffany Ward. "Her amazingly indelible performances have enchanted generations and earned her a permanent place in the annals of popular culture."

The original "Rocky & Bullwinkle Show" (originally titled "Rocky and His Friends") began airing on November 19, 1959 with supporting segments which included Peabody's Improbable History - upon which DreamWorks Animation's upcoming film Mr. Peabody & Sherman is based. Rocky, Bullwinkle, Natasha, Boris and a few other familiar faces get the show started with the all-new madcap adventure.

Rocky & Bullwinkle is being directed by Gary Trousdale (Beauty and the Beast), produced by Denise Nolan Cascino (Megamind) and written by Thomas Lennon & Robert Ben Garant (Night at the Museum). It stars June Foray ("Rocky and His Friends") as the voice of Rocket J. Squirrel and Tom Kenny ("SpongeBob SquarePants") as the voice of Bullwinkle Moose. The short will be released in 2014.
