Big Bug Man (lost animated movie)


What happened to that? It was announced 12 years ago as Marlon Brando's last role before his death. Apparently it was a 2D animated superhero spoof. Was it ever completed? Why no release date? Would you like to see it?

I was asking around the IMDb boards about it, a few months ago. Somebody told me that IMDb had removed it because there was no evidence that the film actually existed.

Might have been just a movie poster and somebody's wishful thinking. Might be that Brando's estate/family didn't want something as potentially-embarrassing as THAT to be his final credit.

Whatever the circumstances, whether the movie was made or not, it was never released.

I honestly never heard of it until now. Very interesting.

It sounded like an interesting idea, it has been well over a decade since the it was announced and the dialogue was recorded, i hope it does get released someday or at least release some demos of the actors recordings and pencil tests.
