Warners Making Marvin the Martian MovieWarner Bros. is making a feature film based on Marvin the Martian from the Looney Tunes cartoons.

The Marvin character, created by Chuck Jones, made his first Looney Tunes appearance in the 1948 cartoon “Haredevil Hare”. Marvin was originally unnamed but gained the “Marvin the Martian” moniker several years later for marketing purposes. A typical Marvin cartoon would find the martian intent on blowing up the Earth, only to be foiled by Bugs Bunny. The feature film will feature a mix of live action and CGI.

The current idea is a Christmas story, with Marvin coming to Earth to destroy Christmas but being prevented from doing so when he’s trapped in a gift box.
