John Lithgow from Dexter looking confused in front of the monsters from Spellbound

✕ Remove Ads Animation films come calling like five years before anybody sees them, and it's usually a paragraph describing the project. And when they invited me to do this, that paragraph included the names Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem, and Nathan Lane, and that certainly caught my eye. Also, Vicky Jenson, who had directed me in a little film called Shrek many, many years ago, and I remembered her very fondly.
