Surviving Monty Python members unite for non-Python movie.
Monty Python's surviving members are set to reform for a new film, Terry Jones has announced. Jones told Variety that he will direct the sci-fi movie, which is called Absolutely Anything. The 69-year-old confirmed that John Cleese, Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin have joined the project, while he is still hopeful to sign Eric Idle.
Hollywood actor Robin Williams has also been cast as an intelligent talking dog called Dennis.
"It's not a Monty Python picture, but it certainly has that sensibility," he said.
Absolutely Anything will be made in CGI,with the Monty Python crew voicing a group of aliens who grant a human being immense power, leading to chaos.
Life of Brian's Mike Medavoy will produce the piece, based on a 20-year-old script developed by Jones and Gavin Scott.
