Jerry Seinfeld’s Bee Movie

Jerry Seinfeld (at least appears to be) the role model for knowing when you have enough. This guy walked away from a million dollars an episode on his TV show (one of the greatest sitcoms of all time) when the ratings were still strong and his following was HUGE. He could have ruled the world. But instead, he walked away, focused on his comedy (which is his passion) took life easy and dedicated time to just being a family man. I admire that. The man just seems to have one of the most level heads in the entertainment world.

Seinfeld reruns are still just as gold as when they first aired. I swear I can still watch it for hours straight. And the funny thing is, his absence from the public eye for all these years in any significant manner hasn’t hurt the mans popularity one little bit. The word “Seinfeld” gets mentioned and people will still pop their heads up and listen. Well here it is folks… Seinfeld is getting into the movie business. The following comes from our friends over at Cinema Blend:

Jerry’s in the midst of making a movie about bees. The film’s being called rather simply, Bee Movie and it’s being produced by the folks that brought you Shrek and some other animated movies that no one really liked as much, DreamWorks. Jerry is writing, producing, and stars in the movie as a bee voice. I wonder if the bees will hang out at honey shops and discuss nothing?

Ok, I’ll be the first to tell you that I was a little disappointed to hear that Seinfeld’s journey into film was starting with an animated movie… but the genius of Seinfeld has always been in his writing… so I honestly could care less that he’s doing one of the voices in the movie. I’m more excited that he wrote the thing… and THAT is what will make this movie work (at least I hope so).

The big question is “will the bees be the masters of their domains”?
