From Heather
It's just been announced that
Andy will be reuniting with fellow LOTR alum Sir Ian McKellan to provide
voices for an upcoming stop-motion animation comedy entitled 'Flushed Away.'
Andy will be voicing (gasp!) a sewer rat, while Ian will be voicing a frog.
co-starring with them will supposedly be Hugh Jackman. the film is about
a pampered rat (this role will go to Hugh if he is able to commit to the
project) who accidentally gets flushed from his swanky home into the slimy
London sewers. it sounds like a very cute premise. :)DreamWorks will be
the studio releasing the film. no release date has been set. Heather also

Blessed info from Heather
i found some info on
'Blessed.' it's not directly Andy-related, but it has some
relevance. IMDB (the internet movie database) stated that as of Feb. 13th,
the
film has gone into post-production to prepare for its release later this
year.
also, filming was halted briefly due to the death of one of the stars- David
Hemmings. in order to complete the film, a body double was used to stand
in for Hemmings and CG shots of David's face were used for several key scenes
in the film. i looked for the name of Andy's character, but nothing came
up. but i do know that he'll be playing an Italian priest investigating
mysterious events occuring in a fertility clinic.

2nd June
I found some info out
about an Andy's soon to be released film Blessed formally know as Samathan's
Child.
Star Andy Serkis briefly spoke with SciFi Wire about his role, saying...
"I play this Italian priest who's sort of a bit of a detective. It
takes place in this community in which there's an in-vitro clinic, and this
couple can't have a baby, so they go to this community. Everybody's working
for the people who run the center."
taken from upcoming
horror movies
He then talked about how the title for the film was changed because it was too similar to Rosmary's Baby... "I think if they called it Samantha's Child it would have been a little bit too on the nose, perhaps."
31st April
Andy is just finishing up doing a book tour around the uk. I saw him at Waterstones Deansgate Manchester on the 26th April he was a real star just like normal. Oh and that hair yeah it's getting bigger again. For those who don't know Andy's wife Lorraine is expecting their third child.
