Paramount Animation has announced that they are once again working on a Mighty Mouse feature film. This marks the latest chapter in a long history of attempts to bring the iconic character to the big screen. The last public announcement about a Mighty Mouse film was in 2019.
Efforts to produce a Mighty Mouse film date back to the mid-1990s, with various attempts being made over the past thirty years, none of which have come to fruition. The latest project involves Ryan Reynolds producing through his company Maximum Effort Productions and writer Matt Lieberman, known for his work on animated films such as Rumble and Scoob!. The film is part of Maximum Effort’s deal with Paramount Pictures, overseen by Brad Butler, vp of animated features at Paramount Animation.
While details about the project’s structure have not been revealed, it is expected to be a live-action/cgi hybrid film, similar to Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. Mighty Mouse, originally created as a parody of Superman in 1942, gained popularity through various tv series in the following decades, including Mighty Mouse Playhouse and The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse. The character has remained a beloved icon for fans of animation.
