Curious George is a 2006 traditionally animated film adaptation of the children's stories by H.A. and Margret Rey. Will Ferrell voices Ted. Matthew O'Callaghan directed . This project had been in development hell at Imagine Entertainment for a long time, dating back at least as long ago as 1992 . The screenplay was written by Michael McCullers, Dan Gerson, Rob Baird, Joe Stillman and Karey Kirkpatrick. Although it is a traditionally animated film, about twenty percent of it takes place in 3D environments that were computer-generated. This was Universal's first theatrically released... feature-length animated film since 1995's Balto. It was Imagine Entertainment's first animated film. After the feature film was released, the franchise was adapted to a TV series on PBS Kids. A clumsy, mischievous, friendly and curious monkey named George lives in the jungles of Africa. His behavior amuses the other young jungle animals, but angers their parents; therefore George is left sad and alone.
