Brad Copeland wrote the script, which Eric Brevig is directing. Donald De Line and Karen Rosenfelt are onboard to produce the project, which is based on the Hannah-Barbera cartoon character. He first debuted in 1958 as a supporting character on “The Huckleberry Hound Show” cartoon before eventually gaining his own show. The character is best known for roaming the woods of the fictional Jellystone Park with his partner Boo-Boo, stealing picnic baskets of food.
