The new film from Monty Python alum Terry Jones, Almost Anything, will star Simon Pegg and Kate Beckinsale, in addition to the voices of the surviving members of Monty Python—John Cleese, Michael Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, and Jones himself—and Robin Williams (in one of his last performances) as a dog.
Pegg plays a schlub granted fantastical powers by his CGI-animated extraterrestrial overseers, played by the Pythons. Williams voices the inevitable live-action/CG-hybrid humping-inclined dog.
It’s the first time the surviving Pythons will have appeared together (as it were) in a proper feature film since The Meaning of Life, though there was a semi-reunion for the animated feature A Liar’s Autobiography: The Untrue Story of Monty Python’s Graham Chapman, on which all but Idle participated.
