Mr Ed...he's coming to cinemas!

If your like me and you have seen The Harry Enfield show you'll probably get easily confused by the joke of 'He's dead of course'

Well...it's not quite like that Fox 2000 have got the feature film rights to this CBS TV show that first aired in 1961 and came off screens in 1966.

Thanks to Variety online has reported that David Friendly and Jim Mahoney,- the team principal if you like of Friendly Films-, are now on the lookout for a writer for this live action film that will be coming to our cinema screens. This dynamic duo will produce this feature film, and apart from this going to be a live action feature it will star a real horse of course...sorry for the pun, with a CGI mouth for all the talking.

This must have been a very tricky rights deal to get as according to Variety these had to be aquired from two different estates.

But its understandable why Fox 2000 wants to make this film as there has been a steady wave of horse related films coming out at the moment such as the hotly anticipated Johnny Depp 'Lone Ranger being planned but as we all know at the moment that this has gone from pre-production then it got shutdown halfway into this pre-production because of budget problems, then it got the go ahead again but a lot of things will have to be gotten rid of. And if your like me and absolutely love all things Johnny Depp then you'll want to know that he has done an interview with Vanity Fair and this is in the November issue that is out now, so go buy this!

Then there is the new Steven Spielberg film 'War Horse' and for all those who are itching to go see this film version will be interested to know there is a new theatrical trailer for this going around:

This will be out in UK cinemas on January 13th 2012 and for those of you in the US this will be showing up in your cinemas on christmas day.
