Inspired by the iconic two-part graphic novel “La Bête Est Morte,” written by Edmond François Calvo during the Nazi occupation of France during World War II and published just after the liberation of Paris, THE BIG WAR is directed by the famous French actor. The live action scenes will be shot next summer and then the animators will use CGI to create the animated characters before the film hits cinemas sometime in 2027 or Christmas 2026. This epic 30 million euro movie, set in the World War II is described by Kassovitz as a Paddington meets Saving Private Ryan. The English language movie will is planned as a family blockbuster that explains the war with humor, emotions and action. It’s the story of the Second World War where Americans are buffalos, the French are little rabbits, Germans are wolves, Italians are hyenas, Brits are handsome English dogs and Russians are brave white bears.

  1. This concept for *The Big War* sounds absolutely fascinating and refreshingly unique! Combining live action with animated animal characters to tell a WWII story is such an inventive approach. The blend of humor, emotion, and action promises a family-friendly take on a heavy topic, which is a challenging balance to strike. I’m especially intrigued by the character choices—buffaloes and rabbits as Americans and the French, respectively, is a clever twist! Can’t wait to see how this unfolds when it hits theaters! Happy Tuesday. Please check out my new post: https://www.melodyjacob.com/2024/10/the-most-thoughtful-christmas-gifts-you-can-give-this-holiday-season.html

    1. I think it will be a classic if they do it right, his role model is Spielberg.

  2. Huh, well this is a new concept. I'm not sure it's one that I'll watch, but I love the originality of telling such an important piece of history in a way that all ages can follow. I'll look forward to the trailer for this one.
