Oddworld Inhabitants’ next project will be a CGI feature film of their new property, Citizen Siege. Lorne Lanning will direct the film, which will be animated by Vanguard Animation, the independant film production company founded by John H. Williams, the producer of the Shrek films. It will attempt to pave the way for other computer animation studios to create CGI films for a mature audience by demonstrating there is an audience for them.

The announcement was made during Lorne’s keynote speech at GameCity in Nottingham, U.K. OddBlog attended the presentation, and we will have a special report on it soon.
