Hey folks, Harry here... Seems that Dreamworks has hurriedly put SHREK 2 (boy that's a great title... ahem) on the fast track to get out next, with MADAGASCAR hitting the following Christmas. Here's the lowdown....
PDI just gave Animated Movies (Animated-Movies.Com) the official word on the status of their upcoming CGI features:
"TUSKER [starring Jodie Foster and Morgan Freeman, which was originally scheduled for Christmas 2002] is currently on-hold since the stories for both SHREK 2 and MADAGASCAR are more developed and ready for production (we're doing both movies right now).
You'll see SHREK 2 in theatres around Memorial Day 2004 and MADAGASCAR about six months later. TUSKER's date is TBD."
