Not twenty four hours after the poster for the Russell Brand starring animated comedy Hop did the rounds there’s a teaser trailer to entice the masses.

Along with Brand the film stars James Marsden, Kaley Cuoco, Elizabeth Perkins and Chelsea Handler and comes from the same team who unleashed Despicable Me to the world.

Synopsis:

Synopsis: Blending state-of-the-art animation with live action, HOP tells the comic tale of Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker who accidentally injures the Easter Bunny (voiced by Russell Brand) and must take him in as he recovers.  As Fred struggles with the world’s worst houseguest, both will learn what it takes to finally grow up.

The film is helmed by Tim Hill, director of the blockbuster ALVIN & THE CHIPMUNKS and produced by Chris Meledandri’s Illumination Entertainment (DESPICABLE ME). At its heart, HOP is a classic buddy movie… it’s just that one of the buddies is a talking rabbit!

Hop is in UK cinemas April 1st, 2011!

The teaser is more of an animation test and benefits from the ubiquitous Song 2 and I can’t help but think of a recent advert for a chocolate bar.
