Report: Sausage Party Co-Director Conrad Vernon Attached To Warner Bros' Animated Jetsons Reboot
It's taken a few years to get off the ground, but it looks like Warner Bros is moving forward with their big screen Jetsons reboot. First reported back in January of 2015, the studio has now signed up Conrad Vernon, director of Monsters vs. Aliens and Madagascar 3, and co-director of Sausage Party, to develop and possibly direct the film, according to a report from THR. The last time we saw the Jetsons on the screen was in the straight-to-home-video classic team-up with WWE, The Jetsons & WWE: Robo-Wrestlemania. It will be hard to top that, for sure, but Warner Bros aims to try.
Though the original 1960s show was a hit in syndication for decades and one of the most well-known cartoons of all time, The Jetsons failed epicly in predicting the future, as humanity has not yet developed flying cars or robot maids. Or at least that's what the government wants you to believe.
