This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. The Big Picture Jason Sudeikis made waves as an aloof but lovable soccer coach in Ted Lasso, but now he's ready to take on a very different role: an animated pig. Sudeikis is set to star in the upcoming animated comedy film Hitpig!, which has just been acquired by Viva Pictures for a Nov. 1, 2024, release in theaters.
The trailer shows off Sudeikis as a 'Hitpig' that works as a bounty hunter for animals, as he catches escaped pets and returns them to their owners. However, the trailer shows that Sudeikis' pig will have to contend with an unconventional escaped animal: a circus elephant named Pickles, voiced by Lilly Singh.
Sudeikis won't be alone in his animated animal kingdom; beyond Singh and Wilson, he will be joined in the voice booth by an ensemble of RuPaul, Flavor Flav, Anitta, Andy Serkis, Lorraine Ashbourne, Hannah Gadsby, Shelby Young, and Charlie Adler. The film is directed by David Feiss and Cinzia Angelini from a screenplay by Dave Rosenbaum and Tyler Werrin, though the film itself is based on the children's book Pete & Pickles by Berkley Breathed.
Sudeikis Has Had a Wide-Ranging Career Sudeikis is no stranger to comedy, first earning his chops on the iconic sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live. While at SNL, Sudeikis became known for his performance of then-Vice President Joe Biden, alongside a slew of other characters. After SNL, Sudeikis ventured into films with leading roles in comedies like We're the Millers and the Horrible Bosses franchise.
His most iconic role, though, is clearly as Coach Ted Lasso in the aforementioned Apple TV+ series of the same name. Starring alongside Hannah Waddingham and Juno Temple as an American football coach crossing the pond to take over a British soccer club, Ted Lasso recieved widespread critical acclaim and is widely considered one of the greatest comedy shows of the 21st century.
