OVER THE HEDGE co-director Karey Kirkpatrick has announced that Nick Nolte, Catherine O'Hara, William Shatner, Steve Carell, Eugene Levy, Wanda Sykes and Avril Lavigne have joined the voice cast of the DreamWorks animated comedy, reports BlackFilm.com.
The film stars Bruce Willis as the mischievous con-artist raccoon R.J. and Garry Shandling as the sensitive turtle named Verne. When R.J., Verne and their woodland friends find a suburban housing development encroaching on their forest home, Verne's first instinct is to retreat into his shell and leave, but the ever-opportunistic R.J. sees a treasure trove to be had from his unsuspecting new neighbors.
The film is set for release May 19, 2006.
