Glu Mobile will develop and publish the mobile game to launch in conjunction with the March 2009 film release of MONSTERS VS. ALIENS from DreamWorks Animation.
The 3-D animated film reinvents the classic '50s monster movie into an irreverent modern day action comedy.
Jill Braff, SVP of global publishing, Glu Mobile said, "The movie plot lends itself perfectly for a mobile game, and our production team is working closely with the DreamWorks team to bring the story and monstrously funny characters to mobile."
This will be the second business collaboration between Glu and DreamWorks. Glu is developing and publishing the mobile game for MADAGASCAR: ESCAPE 2 AFRICA, which will launch worldwide at the same time as the film's U.S. premiere on November 7, 2008.
The film includes an all-star cast including Reese Witherspoon as Ginormica, a larger-than-life woman, Hugh Laurie as Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D., Seth Rogen, as the jellylike B.O.B. and Will Arnett as the half-ape, half-fish Missing Link. Kiefer Sutherland will speak for General W.R. Monger and Stephen Colbert portrays the President of the United States.
