FROM IGN MOVIES:
A Monty Python reunion film is brewing, and not just that but it'll star member Graham Chapman -- who's been dead since 1989.
The New York Times reports that a 3D animated film of Chapman's "absurdist" memoir A Liar's Autobiography: Volume VI is in the works, with most of the other Python members "performing roles that are cut together with Chapman's voice from a taped reading made shortly before he died."
The new film has 15 different animation companies working on chapters that will run between three and 12 minutes long, each in a different style of cartooning. Eric Idle is the only Python member who hasn't signed on for the film (yet).
The picture will get a theatrical release in the U.K. next year and will debut on TV and online here in the U.S. courtesy of Epix (who?).
