Pixar's Newt Makes Surprise Appearance

In May 2010 news broke that Pixar had canceled its film Newt, originally scheduled for release summer 2011 (now Cars 2 has that slot). In an unusual move, Disney-Pixar has posted artwork from Newt on its Facebook page. Take a look at some amazing images!

The Facebook post states: "As most of you already know, 'Newt' is no longer in development at Pixar. However, that doesn't mean we can't share some of the Pixar artists' amazing artwork with our Facebook fans!"

While details as to why Newt is "no longer in production" are unavailable, this incredible artwork really makes me wish Newt could make it to the big screen! For some interesting commentary and speculation from May see "Thoughts on Newt" posted at Upcoming Pixar.
