WWE have announced the latest step in their partnership with Warner Bros.
The two companies are about to start working on a new animated Flintstones movie. This comes well before their relaunch of the Scooby Doo franchise is even finished. While Scooby Doo will feature several WWE personalities in main roles, WWE superstars will be voicing unique characters in the Flintstones.
All that is known about the plot is that Fred Flintstone and his best friend Barney Rubble will get involved with the first ever WWE event. Three new characters have been confirmed; Vince McMagma, John Cenastone and CM Punkrock.
Here is the press release.
