Just look at the cast for the upcoming game The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. You’ve got Christina Ricci, Elijah Wood, Wayne Brady, Gary Oldman, and Mark Hamil – all amazing voice talents. In other words, you’ve got the makings of an amazing CGI movie, which according to Variety is in the works.
Velvet Octopus has a five-pic deal with producer Ash Shah, which includes two more 3-D projects, both CGI animated — “Outback,” the story of a white koala bear, and “The Legend of Spyro,” a spin-off from the best-selling video game.

Of course there are no details whatsoever other than the fact that a deal is in place, but if they can secure even a few of the series’ top-notch voice actors I’d be glad to hand over my hard-earned monies for a couple of hours of purple dragon goodness.
