Charlie Brown and the gang is back in a modern sort of fairy-tale story, and Charles M. Schulz's characters are telling their fans to "Dream Big."
Next year, Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock, Linus, and Peppermint Patty will come to life on a 3D computer-animated film, and producer Paul Fieg promised on USA Today that despite taking the characters to the 21st century, there will be no twerking, backwards baseball caps, or "break the Internet" stunts involved.
In fact, according to the website, the filmmakers are set to give the film the timeless quality that Schulz's characters had for the 50-plus years that they were in comic strips and TV specials.
The story of "Peanuts" follows a little boy with indomitable optimism, on a quest to get something he was sure he needed, who eventually realized that he is fine with being who he truly is.
The full trailer has only recently been released, and according to The Verge, despite the fact that there are no real plot details to get to, the trailer has shown a complex Peanuts world that retains the original style and charm that were very distinctive in Schulz's works.
The Daily Mail also noted that the new film, unlike its many reboots, will most likely stay true to its source material, considering that the scriptwriters are Craig and Bryan Schulz - the son and grandson of the original creator, and they have told the Washington Post that their goal for the film is to honor Charles' original work.
Snoopy, who never actually spoke in the many TV specials, will also retain his own voice actor, Bill Melendez. The Daily Mail reported that the new film will make use of Melendez's recordings in order to make sure that Snoopy will sound the same.
Craig Schulz spoke to the Washington Post, and right off the bat, he admitted to being protective of his father's legacy, therefore explaining why it is so important for the family to be in control of the film rights, saying, "If we're going to do this project, it has to be under Schulz control - this is a Schulz film. No one is going to grab and run with it. We need to have absolute quality control and keep it under Dad's legacy. ... You can't bring people in from the outside and expect them to understand 'Peanuts'."
"The Peanuts Movie" is set to be released in theaters on November 6th, 2015, in time for the 65th anniversary special of the comic, as well as the 50th anniversary of the Christmas special.
