• View Upcoming FilmsColumbia Pictures presents Sony Pictures Animation's first-full length feature film, the animated action-adventure comedy OPEN SEASON, in which Boog (Martin Lawrence), a grizzly bear with no survival skills, has his perfect world in the tranquil town of Timberline turned upside-down when he meets Elliot (Ashton Kutcher), a scrawny, fast-talking wild mule deer. When Elliot convinces Boog to desert his idyllic existence with his beloved Park Ranger Beth (Debra Messing), who raised him since he was a cub, and try the "wild" life, things quickly spiral out of control. With open season upon them, and the hunters arriving in force, Elliot must help Boog get in touch with his inner grizzly to unite the woodland creatures and take the forest back!
Open Season is based on the humor of cartoonist Steve Moore ("In the Bleachers") who, along with John Carls, serves as executive producer. The film is directed by Roger Allers (THE LION KING) and Jill Culton (MONSTERS, INC. and TOY STORY 2). The co-director is Anthony Stacchi (ANTZ). The producer is Michelle Murdocca (STUART LITTLE and STUART LITTLE 2). Legendary singer-songwriter Paul Westerberg created original songs and score for this film. The CG animation is by Sony Pictures Imageworks.
