Warner Bros. and WWE Studios are tag-teaming to co-produce a Flintstones animated movie to be released in early 2015. Here, fixtures of the 60s Hanna-Barbera cartoon including Fred and Barney will be joined by WWE staples including Vince McMagma (voiced by Vince McMahon), and such WWE Superstars and Divas including John Cenastone (John Cena) and CM Punkrock (CM Punk). They will take part in a prehistoric WWE main event.
Considering the cartoons love for all things named for all things geological, it seems a glaring absence not to have Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson here, particularly since he occasionally gets in the ring. But maybe thats too obvious, or too expensive. After all Johnson has been killing it this summer in G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Pain & Gain and Fast 6,and this one doesnt look like its going to hit theaters.
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will handle worldwide distribution on Blu-ray, DVD, VOD and digital download. The film will be co-produced by Warner Bros. Animation and WWE Studios, and WWE will do its branding thing through its TV, digital media and print assets to market the movie. Bradley Buchanan, SVP of Business and Legal Affairs negotiated on behalf of WWE Studios.
WWE is family-friendly entertainment, so partnering with Warner Bros. on a Flintstones/WWE project was a natural extension of our Scooby Doo deal, said Michael Luisi, President, WWE Studios. This new, animated feature allows us to showcase our brand with young fans and loyal Flintstones enthusiasts alike.

at Cena for being the nikka that's on the Fruity Pebbles commercials now knowing damn well it's Darren Young's time to shine on the cover...
