New HOP Featurette: “My Dad the Easter Bunny”

Watch as Russell Brand and James Marsden explain the important bond between our hero E.B. and his dad the Easter Bunny.

Synopsis:

Blending state of the art animation with live action, HOP is a comedy about E.B. (voiced by Russell Brand), the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. On the eve of taking over the family business, E.B. leaves for Hollywood in pursuit of his dream of becoming a drummer. He encounters Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker with his own lofty goals, who accidentally hits E.B. with his car. Feigning injury, E.B. manipulates Fred into providing him shelter, and Fred finds himself with the world’s worst houseguest.

The film is helmed by Tim Hill, director of the blockbuster Alvin and the Chipmunks and produced by Chris Meledandri’s Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me).

HOP will be in theaters on April 1, 2011. Check out the film’s official site at http://www.iwantcandy.com/ or on Facebook HERE.
