Yep, Sony are rebooting The Smurfs with more of a faithful all-animated adaptation with an all-new voice cast, who are unveiled here

I also wish Hank was voicing Gargamel.

Nice, but why CG? What's wrong with traditional 2D animation? Fewer limitations...but I guess since it's a movie and not a regular series, I'll give it a pass.

The movie has undergone a title change to "The Smurfs: The Lost Village"

I actually wouldn't mind seeing this movie, as I mentioned earlier (I give them a pass on it being CGI)...but at the same time, I wish they'd gone with actual professional voice actors as opposed to celebrities, especially when some of the voice actors are still alive, like June Foray (sp?). That aside, this does look like it'll be a HUGE improvement over the previous abominations I never had the patience to sit through fully.

I was a big Smurfs fan too and still declare it as my favorite cartoon series period and will until the day I die, so the other movie felt like a slap to the face to me, but seems this upcoming one will actually work as it seems it'll be closer in spirit to what the original series was.

I am sure there are many voice actors still alive who were voices on the original series so it would be nice if they gave them a call.
