Noah Baumbach‘s last film, Frances Ha, was shot and finished without many people knowing about it; the director’s involvement was only revealed just before the film premiered at Telluride. He’s currently in production on the film While We’re Young, about which we also know little. Now it seems like the Greenberg and The Squid and the Whale director is taking a similar approach with another film; the difference is that this is an animated project, for a major studio. Even better, the film, Flawed Dogs, is based on recent work by cartoonist and author Berkley Breathed. The adaptation was announced a couple years ago, but this is the first we’ve heard of Baumbach’s involvement. Bleeding Cool reports that Baumbach has been “secretly” working on an adaptation of the Flawed Dogs novel The Shocking Raid on Westminster. The film isn’t a 100% straightforward adaptation of the novel, according to BC, as there are some reworked plot details and that title, which suggest material taken from the early Flawed Dogs children’s book.
