Zanytoons: Now and Forever

Zanytoons: Now and Forever is an upcoming 2023 American 3D computer-animated adventure comedy film produced by Paramount Animation and based on the Zanytoons franchise. The film will be directed by Rich Moore from a screenplay by David Feiss, Dan Fogelman, and Matt Lieberman and a story by Lieberman and Phil Johnston. It will star the voiced of Billy West, Rob Paulsen, Jess Harnell, E.G. Daily, Jim Cummings, Dan Castellaneta, and Tom Kenny with Ryan Reynolds, Kevin Hart, Chris Rock, Donald Glover, Elizabeth Banks, Taraji P. Henson, Joe Keery, Patrick Stewart, and Laurence Fishburne.

Plans for a CGI Zanytoons film began in March 2015, following the box office success of Paramount Animation's first film The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water when Paramount decided to reboot the Zanytoons film series. After about 4 years in development hell, the film was officially announced in September 2019 and Rich Moore was initially hired to direct the film, with a script from David Feiss, Dan Fogelman, and Matt Lieberman and a story from Lieberman and Phil Johnston. Production on the film begin in July 2020 and it will mark the first theatrically released film to feature the Zanytoons characters since the release of Zanytoons: Out of Control (2010). It will be the first film in the franchise to be fully animated in stylized CGI rather than traditional 2D animation.

Zanytoons: Now and Forever is set to be released on May 19, 2023 by Paramount Pictures.

Premise
The Zanytoons all live in ZanyTown, a place where everyone and everything is zany. However, things start to go bad when an evil mastermind named The Jaded Mask (Laurence Fishburne) steals the town's supply of Zanium, the source of what makes everything zany. Charlie Chinchilla (Billy West), Oliver Owl (Rob Paulsen), and some of the other Zanytoons band together to get the Zanium back, and they must do it within 48 hours. If they don't, the Zanytoons (as well as ZanyTown) will lose their zaniness forever.
