Did you know
Warner Bros. is developing a live-action/animated movie version of beloved
Hanna-Barbera cartoon character Yogi Bear? That’s the word on the street,
as well as on the Internets.
So comedian/actor
T.J. Miller ventured over to
Hollywood Animal Ranch for a screen test with Bam Bam, the grizzly bear. When I first clicked, I expected CGI. Nope. This is real. Watch as Miller improvises with Bam Bam. Will they survive? SPOILER ALERT!
Hey, Boo Boo! Do you need a refresher on who/what Yogi Bear was? Here is a 1968 episode of
Yogi’s Big Break:
And to complete the circle (or triangle!), here is a clip of
Will Ferrell wrestling “Dewie the Bear” from the 2008 movie,
Semi-Pro. Of course,
that bear actually later went on to kill an animal trainer last year. The things we do for comedy sometimes, people!
