Stephen Colbert and Allison Janney Join All-Star Cast of Dreamworks’ MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN


Back in March, we brought you the news when Emmy Award™ winner Ty Burrell (Modern Family) was cast as the voice of Mr. Peabody, and Max Charles (The Amazing Spider-Man, The Three Stooges) was cast as the voice of Peabody’s “pet boy” Sherman, in the Rob Minkoff (Stuart Little, The Lion King) directed CG animated film, Mr. Peabody & Sherman.

Now, DreamWorks Animation has announced that Stephen Colbert (The Colbert Report), Emmy Award® winner Allison Janney (The Help, The West Wing), Ellie Kemper (Bridesmaids, The Office), Ariel Winter (Modern Family) and Stephen Tobolowsky (Californication, Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax) have joined the voice cast of the film as well.

Synopsis:

Based on Jay Ward’s classic cartoon, Mr. Peabody is the world’s smartest person who happens to be a dog. When his “pet” boy Sherman uses their time traveling WABAC machine without permission, events in history spiral out of control to disastrous and comical results. It’s up to this most unexpected of father-son teams to somehow put things back on track before the space-time continuum is irreparably destroyed.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman is slated to hit theaters on November 8, 2013.
