Exodus Film Group has announced that Christian Slater, Steve Buscemi and John Cleese will be lending their voices to the upcoming animated feature, IGOR.

IGOR is a playfully irreverent comedy which brings a new twist to the classic monster genre, Igor is the story of a mad scientist's hunchbacked lab assistant who has big dreams of becoming a scientist in his own right and winning the coveted first place award at the annual Evil Science Fair.

Slater is lending his voice to the title role of Igor, Dr. Glickenstein's hunchbacked lab assistant; Buscemi will voice "Scamper," a super intelligent and ill-tempered lab rabbit; Cleese will then voice the character of "Dr. Glickenstein," Igor's evil master.

The Weinstein Company will distribute the film domestically and holds the international rights as well.
