Today, Toonbox Entertainment (The Nut Job) and GAMA Entertainment (TMNT) announced that Jackie Chan has been tapped as an Executive Producer and cast to voice in their upcoming production, Once Upon A Zodiac. The film is currently in production.

Galen Walker, producer said: “We are proud to have Jackie Chan part of this film as an executive producer. We are captivated by Jackie Chan’s talent and the leadership that he brings to our animated film.”

Once Upon A Zodiac takes place in a mystical world populated with the animals of the Zodiac, a group of not-yet-friends are brought together by fate. The strength of the Tiger champion and the brains of the Rat genius are nothing compared to the street smarts and courage of a plucky orphaned Dragon. This unlikely trio set out to find missing parents, solve a growing mystery, and help the Grand Council conquer chaos and distrust to usher their world – and ours – into a bright new future.

Sook Yhun, associate producer added: “Having worked closely with Jackie Chan, we believe he brings just the perfect touch of voice talent to Once Upon A Zodiac.”

Known for his work on international hits like the RUSH HOUR franchise, Jackie Chan is a recognized veteran in animation. He notably voiced Mr. Feng in THE NUT JOB 2: NUTTY BY NATURE. He has been featured in all the KUNG FU PANDA franchise. As well, he voiced in the Chinese editions of the Walt Disney Animation Studios production, MULAN, and in his own animated hit series, “JACKIE CHAN ADVENTURES.”

Once Upon A Zodiac is an animated feature production by Toonbox Entertainment and GAMA Entertainment with Galen Walker and Hong Kim producing and Jackie Chan as an executive producer.
