"Planet 51" is an upcoming animated film directed by Jorge Blanco and written by Joe Stillman. Produced by Ilion Animation Studios for $60 million, it was acquired for US distribution by New Line Cinema in November 2007. As of 9 July 2008, "Planet 51" is slated to be released in the second half of 2009 by Sony Pictures Worldwide via TriStar Pictures.

The title is a pun/reference to Area 51, a disputed storage and examination site of UFO material supposedly recovered from Roswell, New Mexico after the 1947 Roswell UFO incident.

Plot Synopsis

The film follows a human astronaut who lands on Planet 51 thinking he's the first to set foot on it. However, he discovers it's inhabited by little green people who live in a white picket-fenced world reminiscent of 1950s America.Patrick Luce, [http://www.monstersandcritics.com/movies/news/article_1415980.php/Planet_51_heads_to_Sony "Planet 51 heads to Sony"] from "Monsters & Critics," 9 July 2008.]
