Paramount and Nickelodeon announce the voice talent for the forthcoming live-action Charlotte's Web (a la Babe), and it's an all-star cast, including Julia Roberts (Charlotte), Steve Buscemi (Templeton/Rat), John Cleese (Samuel/Sheep), Oprah Winfrey and Cedric the Entertainer (Gussy and Golly/Geese), Reba McEntire and Kathy Bates (Betsy and Bitsy/Cows), and Thomas Haden Church and Andre 3000 (Brooks and Benjamin/Crows). No word on who's Wilbur yet, although the ubiquitous Dakota Fanning is Fern. I've always had a soft spot for Charlotte's Web -- it's the first book I ever remember reading -- so I expect I'll probably check this out (even if Julia is the spider.)

Sorry, Scully...I accidentally deleted your comment when throwing out today's 200+ deluge of comment-spam. I always assumed if Berk could speak, he'd have a bit of a scottish brogue, not unlike that fellow who recently took Craig Kilborn's Late-Night post on CBS.
