CHRIS SANDERS DIRECTING UPCOMING DREAMWORKS FILM

Sanders comes to the studio with a long list of family film and television credits, most recently as a writer/director of the film Lilo & Stitch.  He served as a story writer on Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King, and as a writer on Mulan.

"I look forward to working with Jeffrey and the other filmmakers at DreamWorks Animation," says Sanders. "They have dedicated themselves to a complex and classic craft, but have also proven that they are driven to take it to new places. It is their willingness to break boundaries that makes them unique. I've seen firsthand where they are headed, and I'm excited to be part of it."
