>Netflix has dropped $20 million at the Cannes Film Festival to claim the rights to a film called ‘Bubbles’ will tells the story of Michael Jackson’s chimpanzee through stop-motion animation.
>As Variety reports, the movie was being sold at the film festival. The minds behind this niche story is none-other than ‘Hunt For The Wilderpeople‘ director/writer Taika Waititi as well as Mark Gustafson who worked on Wes Anderson’s ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’, another stop-motion feature.
>'Bubbles’ was produced by Starburns Industries. A company that ‘Community’ and ‘Rick and Morty‘ fans might recognise as the property of Dan Harmon. Starburns also financed the stop-motion and Charles Kaufman created dramedy ‘Anomalisa’.

Netflix won't be making a profit off this. I like Taika Watiti and Anomalisa was good, so I'm looking forward to it though.
