Vanessa Hudgens is reuniting with BFF Ashley Tisdale — for an animated film!
Along with Big Time Rushers Kendall Schmidt and Logan Henderson and Ashley Benson, the five will be voicing characters in the upcoming The Great Migration, THR reports.
Kendall‘s older brother Kevin, who also wrote the movie, will also star.
“The idea for The Great Migration arrived in my email inbox via a weekly newsletter from an alternative physician I follow in Chicago,” Kevin shared. “The film centers on a group of characters that encounter a mutated predator threatening to destroy the balance of their environment.”
WHAT DO YOU THINK about the new project?
Kevin and Kenneth Schmidt have a little race down the street on Tuesday afternoon (August 21) in Los Angeles.
The older brothers of Kendall rode their bikes around the neighborhood before heading back for dinner.

In case you missed it, Kendall is featured on Kenneth‘s new tune, “Micro Macro.”
“It describes a new perspective that I hope prompts us all to reflect about where society is and where it should be going,” Kenneth told Parade.com about the track.
We were devastated to hear that Cartoon Network’s UnNatural History would not be back for a second season and it looks like fans were as well.
Deadline got a chance to chat with creator Mike Werbunnatural-history-s2-thoughts about the series and found out just what would’ve happened if the show was picked up for another run. Read his note below:
“I am sorry but we have been unable to secure a second season from another network. The reasons are too tedious to get in to but thanks for loving what was. It’s nice to hear that the show I intended to make (a show that both kids, teenagers and parents could watch alone or together without ripping their eyeballs out — reached some people — even if that audience wasn’t large enough to satisfy the network. There’s some website on facebook where people hit “like†to request that Warners release the season on DVD. In case you are on FB and so inclined – I think it’s called ‘unnatural history dvd release.’
“SEASON 2 THOUGHTS for those interested: I had planned a 2-part opener with extreme adventures involving Genghis Khan’s tomb, a Mongolian death worm, Henry’s disappearance in a sand storm, the rescue of a newborn camel as well as Henry’s (Kevin Schmidt) parents and uncle Bryan. The rest of season 2 (upon the leads return to DC) would have covered subjects ranging from the kids finding the 18 1/2 minute gap of the Nixon/Watergate tapes, Hemingway’s lost novel, vampire finches (they really exist), a Stradivarius violin, a Native American mystery, DB Cooper, the underground railroad, etc. etc etc — plus a deepening of the triangular relationship between Henry, Maggie (Italia Ricci) and Jasper (Jordan Gavaris), the return of Jasper’s mother from France — among other familial and emotional issues set against historical and scientific adventures.
“Anyway, for the handful reading this — wishing you all a happy, healthy 2011.
Mike Werb, creator, Unnatural History.”
IF YOU WERE THE SHOWRUNNER, what would you like to see in season two?
Sadness!
After just one season, Cartoon Network’s UnNatural History has been cancelled, according to Deadline.
The series, starring Kevin Schmidt, Jordan Gavaris and Italia Ricci, followed Griffin, the skilled son of globetrotting anthropologists solving the postmodern mysteries of high school.
Premiering in June, the show opened with 1.4 million viewers on Sunday nights before moving to Tuesday nights. UnNatural History was Cartoon Network’s first live-action series.
