Hosting the MTV Video Music Awards isn't the only thing Russell Brand has in the hopper: The British comedian is also set to lend his voice to the live-action/CGI family comedy I Hop, which is set to be released March 4, 2011, according to a story in Variety. Brand will voice the character of the Easter Bunny, and Universal Pictures/Illumination Entertainment production begins this fall. The story of the flick revolves around an out-of-work slacker who runs over the Easter Bunny and is forced into service to save Easter.

TBS has made plans to pick up a TV version of Ice Cube's movie Are We There Yet?, which will likely premiere in June 2010 with 10 episodes, according to Variety. The deal resembles the one struck with Tyler Perry, whose comedies House of Payne and Meet the Browns (which was originally a theatrical release, as well) also got orders for 10 episodes with an option for a whopping 90 more installments.

Cube, who starred in the film version of Are We There Yet? and its sequel Are We Done Yet? (which grossed a combined $132.4 million domestically), will likely appear occasionally in the series but will not play the same role, although he is set to produce through his Cube Vision production house. Terry Crews of Everybody Hates Chris fame will take on Cube's role of Nick, the single guy who starts dating a young divorcee with two kids and agrees to take them on a road trip to visit their mother.

Disney has found a new starring vehicle for Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus: The company snatched rights to the young adult novel Wings and has plans to develop the title around Cyrus, according to Variety. The story, originally written by Aprilynee Pike, will revolve around Cyrus playing Laurel, a 15-year-old girl who grows up home-schooled in a small town before heading off to a large high school. There, she realizes she's unlike the other kids, as she sprouts a pair of wings and realizes she's a fairy. The book was originally published in May and is planned to be just the beginning of a four-title series. Cyrus is currently shooting The Last Song, an adaptation of the novel Nicholas Sparks wrote.
