An all-star roster of voices will contribute to an animated "Horton Hears a Who" film, including: Jim Carrey, Steve Carell, Isla Fisher, Carol Burnett, Seth Rogen, Will Arnett, Amy Poehler, Dan Fogler, Dane Cook, Jaime Pressly and Jonah Hill.

The film follows elephant Horton (Carrey) who believes he hears voices on a speck of dust, which turns out to be a town called Who-Ville. Carell will play the Mayor of Who-Ville while Burnett will play Sourpuss Jane Kangaroo who bullies and teases poor Horton. Fox/Blue Sky will release HORTON on March 14, 2008, leaving them without an animated film in 2007, the first time since 2004.
