Sony Pictures Entertainment and Annapurna Pictures will partner on what is expected to be an R-rated animated film titled SAUSAGE PARTY, written by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg & Kyle Hunter & Ariel Shaffir, from a story by Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg & Jonah Hill, to be directed by Conrad Vernon (Shrek 2, Monsters vs. Aliens, Madagascar 3) & Greg Tiernan.

Annapurna Pictures and Point Grey Pictures are producing and Sony Pictures will release the film worldwide with the studio eyeing a release date in 2015.

SAUSAGE PARTY is a raunchy animated movie about one sausage’s quest to discover the truth about his existence. After falling out of a shopping cart, our hero sausage and his new friends embark on a perilous journey through the supermarket to get back to their aisles before the 4th of July sale.

Rogen and Goldberg most recently wrote and directed the $100 million hit Sony Pictures comedy THIS IS THE END and are currently working on upcoming films THE INTERVIEW (also for Sony Pictures) and THE NEIGHBORS.

After Point Grey and Annapurna packaged the film and presented it to the studio, Sony agreed to co-finance it with Annapurna.

Annapurna’s upcoming projects include David O. Russell’s AMERICAN HUSTLE starring Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Jeremy Renner, Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence. Also scheduled for release later this year is Bennett Miller’s FOXCATCHER starring Channing Tatum, Steve Carell, and Mark Ruffalo based on the true story of convicted millionaire murderer John DuPont. Both of these films will be distributed by Sony Pictures. In addition, Annapurna is producing Spike Jonze’s new film HER starring Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams and Rooney Mara, set for a fourth quarter release through Warner Bros.

Annapurna also just announced that they will partner with Skydance Productions and Paramount Pictures on a rebooted TERMINATOR movie, the first of a stand-alone trilogy to be release by Paramount in 2015.

Huge passion for film scores, lives for the Academy Awards, loves movie trailers. That is all.
