In case the idea of a second Cars movie isn't really doing it for you, Pixar already has their next original flick in development. Called Brave, it is scheduled for a June 22, 2012 release, and tells the story of an archer named Merida from the Scottish Highlands, who must confront "tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts to discover the true meaning of courage," and also probably turn traditional gender roles on their head in the most adorable, heart-warming way imaginable.
Though concept art from the film has been making the rounds on the internet for about two months now, we've yet to get a look at what the actual animation will look like. Now, courtesy of posts from Disney Pixar France and The Art of Disney Animation Fan Facebook Page (both since removed), we can finally get a look at how Merida will be rendered, and the creepiest Disney fans can get to work on what will no doubt be some profoundly icky fan-art.
The upcoming film will feature Kelly Macdonald as Merida, as well as the voices of Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson, Craig Ferguson, Robbie Coltrane and more, and you can check out the first full trailer in front of Cars 2, when it is released on July 22, 2011. The flick is set to be directed by Brenda Chapman (Prince of Egypt) and Pixar house-talent Mark Andrews, who has worked on several of the studio's hits, including The Incredibles, Cars and Ratatouille.
