Newt

Newt is a proposed computer-animated 3-D film to be produced by Pixar Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. Initially slated for release in June 2012, Disney/Pixar announced in April 2010 that the film Brave would instead be released at that time. In May 2010, various reports claimed that the film was no longer in production, which led some industry writers to speculate that the film was canceled, although no official statement from Pixar has been made. Two newts, Newt and Brooke, live in a community college biology lab and don't care for each other, yet as the last... remaining blue-footed newts on the planet, they are forced to mate and carry on the tradition. Writer and director Gary Rydstrom explained, "Newt is smart but he's never had to think for himself and is pampered. Brooke on the other hand is streetwise and not to be messed with. It’s fair to say it’s about as bad as first dates can get!" When Newt was first announced in April 2008, the film was planned to be released in June 2012, to be followed by the fantasy film The Bear and the Bow.
