The legendary reality series “Survivor” is officially heading to the big screen with a totally new look. Paramount Animation is developing a feature-length animated comedy based on the show. Fans can expect all the usual reality show drama but with a wild cast of animal characters competing for the grand prize.
The Tribe Has Spoken
After running for decades on television “Survivor” is finally getting its very own animated movie adaptation. It is super exciting to see such a classic show try something completely different for the theaters.
Animals Are Taking Over
This time around the contestants are not humans and instead the movie will feature an all animal cast. They will all be fighting to outwit and outlast each other to be crowned the sole survivor on a mystical island.
Jeff Probst Is on Board
The longtime host of the show Jeff Probst is stepping up as an executive producer for this new movie project. He went on Instagram recently to tell fans how pumped he is to bring the show into the animal kingdom.
Expect Lots of Comedy
Probst promised that this new film is going to be an all out comedy full of big laughs and wild moments. We can probably expect to see some hilarious animal jokes mixed in with the classic blindside drama we all love.
The Ultimate Island Challenge
The official summary says these animal players will be traveling from all around the globe to a remote island. It sounds like the perfect setup for some really crazy challenges since animals have different natural skills to use.
Big Personalities and Chaos
Even though the players have fur and feathers they will still bring the big personalities and surprising alliances the show is famous for. You just know there will be plenty of chaos when these animals try to live together and backstab each other.
A Giant Animation Team-Up
Paramount Animation is teaming up with CBS and some other big studios to make this dream a reality. Having these huge rightsholders involved means the movie will definitely capture that true Survivor magic we watch every week.
Hitting a Huge Milestone
This fun movie announcement comes right around the time the show is celebrating its massive fiftieth season. The recent finale brought in millions of viewers showing that people are still totally obsessed with the franchise.
Fresh Content Keeps Coming
While we wait for this animated adventure to hit theaters the regular show is still going strong in Fiji. The crew is already busy filming brand new seasons with human players that will air this fall.
A Whole New Playground
Setting the reality competition in the animal world gives the creators a fresh playground to test out fun new ideas. It is going to be a blast seeing who ends up getting their torch snuffed in this animated jungle.
