The long-running relationship between THQ and Disney/Pixar has achieved shipments of more than 35 million units worldwide. THQ's current agreement with Disney/Pixar, which was announced in 2004, includes rights to create games based on four newly created Disney/Pixar film properties. Last year's Ratatouille video game was the first property released by THQ under this agreement.

WALL/E is expected to release this summer and will mark THQ's next installment in the company's well-established and successful association with Disney/Pixar. Development for WALL/E will be led by THQ's internal Heavy Iron Studios.

About the WALL/E Movie

What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off?

Academy Award-winning writer-director Andrew Stanton ("Finding Nemo") and the inventive storytellers and technical geniuses at Pixar Animation Studios ("The Incredibles," "Cars," "Ratatouille") transport moviegoers to a galaxy not so very far away for a new computer-animated cosmic comedy about a determined robot named WALL/E.

After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL/E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL/E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet's future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL/E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

Joining WALL/E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach, and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.

Filled with surprises, action, humor and heart, WALL/E was written and directed by Andrew Stanton, produced by Jim Morris, co-produced by Lindsey Collins and features original and innovative sound design by Academy Award(R)-winner Ben Burtt ("Star Wars," "Indiana Jones," "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial"). The film is due for release on June 27, 2008.
