is my job and I get to do this."

Hilary, Haylie Duff
Engage in 'Foodfight!'
|
Hilary and Haylie Duff are
taking their sister act to
the movies.
The siblings will lend their
voices to the CG-animated "Foodfight!,"
the inaugural project
co-produced and distributed
through Larry Kasanoff's
Threshold Animation Studios,
according to The Hollywood
Reporter.
The project revolves around
the world of the supermarket
after the customers have
gone home. Various packaged
goods mascots, such as the
jewelry-wearing Mr. Clean
and the hapless Charlie the
Tuna, will also make cameos
in the grocery store
adventure.
Kasanoff directed the
project based on a
screenplay by Brent
Friedman, Rebecca Swanson
and Sean Derek. The film is
scheduled for a fall 2006
release.
Threshold's use of IBM's
high-powered computer
rendering system through the
IBM On Demand Center allows
the animation to be rendered
in just a fraction of the
usual time.
"We want to make the
highest-quality animated
movie, but we don't have
five years and $200
million," Kasanoff says.
"This solution allows us to
get access to unlimited,
real-time computing power
whenever a scene is too big
for our building."
Hilary Duff, 17, is
currently taking remote
online courses for Harvard
and recently completed a
couple tour dates in Texas.
On the big screen, she's
starred in "The Lizzie
Maguire Movie," "Cheaper by
the Dozen," "A Cinderella
Story" and "Raise Your
Voice." She next stars
opposite Heather Locklear in
the comedy "The Perfect
Man," which will be released
in the summer.
Haylie Duff, 20, has made
guest appearances on her
sister's Disney Channel show
"Lizzie Maguire" and "Boston
Public." Her most recent
film credit is the quirky
Fox Searchlight comedy
"Napoleon Dynamite."
