The script, I\u2019ve said before, and you know, I said it to you, it\u2019s extraordinary. It really is. Matt is just so brilliant, and he just cares so deeply about the stories he tells. I will go fly to London in four or five weeks. I haven\u2019t got much to do on it, but I\u2019ll go for four or five weeks. I\u2019ll be there for a few weeks.

So, we spent about two years turning it into what it is now. The director is also really great, so we worked together with a great production team, and the actors are all highly motivated. And because I\u2019m directly involved in the process, I have absolutely no worries. I mean, I just watched it and thought it was fun.<\/p>\n Scooby-Doo: Origins <\/p>\n Deadline<\/a> reports Sherilyn Fenn, Rusty Schwimmer, Peter Macon, Maxwell Simkins, Jona Xiao, Dani Deett\u00e9, Elys\u00e9e Sanvill\u00e9, Alex Isles, Avery Kristen Pohl, Pamela Mitchell, Ross Kimball, Sara Gilbert, Wynn Everett, Sauriyan Sapkota, and Bruce McGill have joined the supporting cast of Scooby-Doo: Origins in undisclosed roles.<\/p>\n Get Jiro <\/p>\n Deadline<\/a> also has word Titus Welliver, Alison Pill, and Justin Kirk will lend their voices to Adult Swim\u2019s upcoming animated adaptation of Get Jiro.
