Mattel and TriStar Pictures have teamed to develop a live-action/animated hybrid feature based on Mattel’s Whac-A-Mole game. “Whac-A-Mole is more than a game — it’s a laugh-out-loud battle of reflexes that has brought joy and a little chaos to families for five decades,” said Robbie Brenner, president of Mattel Films. “We’re beyond excited to team up with TriStar Pictures to turn the iconic experience into a wild, action-packed ride for the big screen.” “Mattel continues to create impact with their films, and Whac-A-Mole is no exception - a brand that has been in culture for generations,” added Nicole Brown, President of TriStar Pictures. “We look forward to partnering with them to bring audiences a fresh, unexpected take on this absolute classic.” Elizabeth Bassin and Steve Spohr will oversee the project for Mattel Films, alongside Shary Shirazi and Kelseigh Coombs for TriStar Pictures.
