Christian Slater, John Cleese and Steve Buscemi have signed up for the animated feature comedy Igor.

Slater (aka: the world's most famous Jack Nicholson impersonator) will voice the titular hunchback, who dreams of winning the big prize at the annual Evil Science Fair. John Cleese (Monty Python's Flying Circus) will voice Dr. Glickenstein, the hunchback's evil "marthter" (random Terry Pratchett gag). Steve Buscemi (Reservoir Dogs) will play Scamper, "a super intelligent and ill-tempered" lab rabbit.

Max Howard (The Lion King, Aladdin), along with Exodus Film Group president John D. Eraklis, will produce the movie. Chris McKenna (American Dad) will write the script. The Weinstein Co. will distribute the film. There's no word on when Igor will be released.
