Roger Rabbit - Toon Platoon (Scrapped Direct To Video Prequel)

Roger Rabbit - Toon Platoon Was A Scrapped Prequel Idea In The 80s "A direct-to-video prequel to  Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, entitled  Roger Rabbit: The Toon Platoon , was written in the late ‘80s but never got off the ground. The WWII-era story involved a young Roger Rabbit rescuing Jessica Rabbit from Nazi forces and ended with a surprise reveal that Roger’s father is Bugs Bunny. For obvious reasons, the project was scrapped, only to be resurrected in the late ‘90s. Spielberg had the Nazi stuff dropped and the plot was changed to cover Roger Rabbit’s rise to fame on Broadway and in Hollywood, now called  Who Discovered Roger Rabbit?  This new proposed version was to feature a mix of CGI, live-action, and traditional animation, but the budget quickly ballooned out of control and this incarnation was called off, as well. News came in 2009 that Robert Zemeckis was working on another sequel idea, so  Roger Rabbit  still isn’t safe from franchise-dom.""
