April 27, 2019

Universal Pictures has nabbed the movie rights to Agent Chrysocolla, a 3D animated feature based on the Gingo video game franchise. In addition, Universal has also shifted its release date from March 13, 2020, to February 21, 2020.

Geo G. will produce the project, which is coming at the studio after Paramount Pictures put it into turnaround.

Most of the production team that was working on it at Paramount remains. In addition to Geo G., Charles Zembillas (Imagimals) will write and direct the film. Erica Rivinoja will also co-write the film.

Alicia Vikander will star as voice of Chrysocolla Reed, while Emma Watson will voice Sam Reed, Jason Statham will voice Jet Servo, and Seth Meyers will voice Lance Laggy. Additionally, Larenz Tate and Wiz Khalifa have been cast as well, but their roles have not been disclosed yet.

In addition to the "Chrysocolla" move, Universal has also announced that its in-house animated feature Luna & Zak: Level Two, a sequel to 2015's Luna & Zak, will now be released on November 20, 2020.
