Warner Animation Group has struck a deal with the Geisel estate to make new animated Dr. Seuss movies. (http://deadline.com/2018/01/dr-seuss-movies-warner-animation-group-cat-in-the-hat-1202268327)
As a consequence, Universal will finally lose the rights after nearly two decades of pissing on his legacy. Thank god! Illumination's upcoming Grinch movie (http://twitter.com/grinchmovie) will be their last.
WAG's first project will be The Cat in the Hat. Good. Now we can have one without a hideous Mike Myers or needlessly crude jokes.

Synopsis:
"The story of Green Eggs and Ham is like a postmodern Plains, Trains and Automobiles through the whimsical world of Dr. Seuss. Sam rescues the rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville where he can charter a cold air balloon to take the Chickeraffe to his island home. Guy just flopped his last big chance at being a world famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. He packs up his invention in a briefcase and resigns to give up on his dreams and become a paint watcher.
A chance meeting at a diner with Sam, and a switch up with the briefcases results in these two unlikely souls getting mixed up on an adventure that takes them on a journey of self discovery. Our two mismatched heroes cross paths with overprotective Michellee, whose daughter, EB, desperately wants a pet, and falls madly in love with the Chickeraffe... despite her mother's fears that it will eat off her face (it won't). Michellee's walled up heart also connects with the heart-hardened Guy. And a laborious love story begins. Our fakakta foursome are also unknowingly pursued by a bounty hunter goat, two bad guys, and a villain who's out to get the Chickeraffee as his ultimate trophy."
