Overview
- Multiple trades report Carrey is negotiating to star as Trevorrow negotiates to direct and co-write with Joe Epstein.
- Warner Bros. declined to comment, and there is no confirmed casting, plot, production timeline, or release date.
- The Jetsons originated as a 1962 Hanna-Barbera series about George and Jane Jetson, their kids Judy and Elroy, dog Astro, and robot maid Rosie in Orbit City.
- Previous efforts never reached release, including a 2003 film with Adam Shankman, a 2007 CGI take with Robert Rodriguez, and a 2017 ABC live-action pilot involving Robert Zemeckis.
