Considering that Fox is already marketing Ice Age 3 I have to wonder what they might be thinking about Space Chimps. See - the next Ice Age won't be here until the summer of 2009 and we've already seen a poster and teaser trailer for it. Space Chimps, on the other hand, is due out this July and this is the first we've ever heard of it.
Space Chimps Poster & Trailer
When a $5 billion NASA probe disappears into an intergalactic wormhole, the agency recruits Ham III, grandson of the first chimpanzee in space, to help retrieve the wayward craft. But Ham is a free-spirited circus performer more interested in zero gravity high jinks than living up to his illustrious heritage. The simian slacker becomes a reluctant hero and learns the true meaning of courage as he and his crewmates, the fearless Lt. Luna and their uptight commander, Titan, risk everything in an effort to save the peaceful inhabitants of a distant planet from an evil dictator. A hilarious, out of this world adventure the whole family can enjoy, Space Chimps features cutting edge CGI animation and the voice talent of Andy Samberg, Cheryl Hines, Patrick Warburton, Kristin Chenoweth and Stanley Tucci.
