HOP arrives on Blu-ray and DVD TODAY!

Blending state-of-the-art animation with live-action, Hop is a comedy about E.B. (voiced by Russell Brand), the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. On the eve of taking over the family business, E.B. leaves for Hollywood to pursue his dream of becoming a drummer. He encounters Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker with lofty goals, who accidentally hits E.B. with his car. Feigning injury, E.B. manipulates Fred into sheltering him, and Fred finds himself with the world’s worst houseguest.
