The Smurfs

As mentioned previously, following the success of Alvin and The Chipmunks, studios are looking for other classic children's properties to adapt.  Next in the live action / CGI cross over genre is 'The Smurfs' which, whilst originally a 1950's comic book is best known for the 1980's animated TV show.

Doogie Howser MD himself, Neil Patrick Harris, will be taking the live action lead, with Jordan Kerner producing.
