Possibly the greatest casting (pun intended) news of this decade was just announced! Ellen DeGeneres has signed on to reprise her role as Dory, the hilariously forgetful Regal Blue Tang fish, in Finding Nemo 2, according to the LA Times.

The 2003 Pixar blockbuster Finding Nemo featured Albert Brooks as the clown fish Marlin who goes in search of his son Nemo and meets Dory along the way on the adventure. Elizabeth Perkins, Brad Garrett, Willem DaFoe, Allison Janney and Geoffrey Rush also voiced characters in the original film.

The sequel is set for a 2016 release, so fans of the original will have to wait a few more years to see Dory in action again.

woo hoo!!!!!!!

1. Damn, Nemo. Stop getting lost. nt

2. Dislike

Why does Hollywood always have to ruin a good thing with an unnecessary sequel? I know it is all about the Benjamins, but why ruin a good thing?

3. Sometimes it works. Toy Story has held up beautifully.

7. I dont mind sequels, I hate announcing it so far in advance

I know Pixar animation takes time, but thats long enough to make three movies at the same time.

8. Well duh. No one else can play that part.

Dory is a great character. I trust the Pixar people to put together a great movie. They always hit a home run.

Crush rules.
