Scorcese Plays Puffer Fish In Sharkslayer
[Friday, April 5th, 2002]Martin Scorsese has signed to join Will Smith, James Gandolfini, Angelina Jolie and Renee Zellweger as under-the-sea voice talent for DreamWorks Pictures' animated project 'Sharkslayer.'
He will be voicing Sykes, a puffer fish. The movie is described as an underwater mob film.
It tells the story of how the underworld is shaken up when the son of the "Soprano" of all sharks gets killed and a young fish named Oscar is found at the scene of the crime. Oscar takes advantage of the situation to play the hero, only to find that there are consequences to posing as the great Sharkslayer.
'Sharkslayer' is in preproduction, with a 2004 release date pegged.
