The first official trailer for Smurfs 3D has hit the internet!
Smurfs 3D hits theaters on August 3rd and is directed by Raja Gosnell, and will follow the little blue characters as they transport from their home to New York City after they are chased out of their magical village by their evil nemesis Gargamel (Hank Azaria) and his mischevious cat Azrael.
This is said to be the first Smurfs film of a planned trilogy.
The film also stars some pretty big celebs, such as How I Met Your Mother’s Neil Patrick Harris, Glee’s Jayma Mays and Sofia Vergara, of Modern Family. The animated Smurfs are voiced by Jonathan Winters (Papa Smurf), Katy Perry (Smurfette), Anton Yelchin (Clumsy Smurf), Alan Cumming (Gutsy Smurf), Fred Armisen (Brainy Smurf), Paul Reubens (Jokey Smurf) and George Lopez (Grouchy Smurf).
Check out the trailer below, and look forward to August 3rd.
Looking at the trailer for this upcoming Smurfs Movie just leaves me a little bit disgusted. To take a great franchise like The Smurfs and turn it into this, is just a disgrace. I’m sure its going to be a major boom for the studio, their going to clean up on merchandising alone, but is it right. Kids nowadays might just think it stinks, but the people that remember the Smurfs I’m sure are going to be cringing the whole time.
