Hop--in theaters April 1--is a live action and animated comedy from the creators of Despicable Me. Just in time for Easter, it tells the story of E.B. (voiced by Russell Brand), the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. On the eve of taking over the family business, E.B. decides to leave home and go to Hollywood to pursue his dream of becoming a drummer.

He encounters Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker with his own lofty goals, who accidentally hits E.B. with his car. Feigning injury, E.B. manipulates Fred into providing him shelter, and Fred finds himself with the world's worst house guest. As E.B. discovers what he really wants to be, everything leads him and Fred in an epic showdown to try and save Easter.
