Jerry Bruckheimer will be herding talking animals in "G-Force," a live-action/CGI family feature film that has landed at Walt Disney Pictures with Bruckheimer attached to produce.

"G-Force" marks the directorial debut of visual effects supervisor Hoyt Yeatman, who has worked on a number of Bruckheimer's films. Yeatman has been developing the project at his newly formed production venture Whamaphram Prods., which is set to produce both computer-generated and animated film projects integrating animated characters into live-action settings.

"G-Force" follows a group of intelligent animal commandoes working for a government agency trying to prevent an evil billionaire from taking over the world. Jason Reed will oversee for Disney.

Yeatman's credits as a visual effects supervisor include "Armageddon," "Mighty Joe Young," "Mission to Mars," "Crimson Tide," "Con Air," "The Rock" and "Kangaroo Jack." He won an Oscar for his work on "The Abyss."

Bruckheimer has been at work on "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and "Glory Road." He also was an executive producer on the TV series "The Amazing Race 5."
