Dash Shaw Reveals Next Project After “My Entire High School”
Let’s just hope Gkids doesn’t pick up this next effort so that it can actually get some press.
Tomorrow will see the NYC premiere of Dash Shaw’s My Entire High School Sinking Into The Sea and judging from the ticket sales as of this writing, aside from the 7pm shows with talent Q&A’s, it should be a house jam-packed with empty seats for the majority of the weekend which means the Gkids PR staff is doing exactly what’s expected of them when it comes to promotion.
Their latest effort is scoring this interview with The Hollywood Reporter, and while most of it makes Dash sound a tad pretentious, there was some cool news wherein he has announced that he is already working on another project:
Shaw is already working on his next animated movie, which he described as an R-rated, 1960s-set story about a zoo for mythological creatures that questions whether or not zoos are a good idea.
Lead animator on HSS, Jane Samborski, made mention of a new project the other day in the Reddit AMA session we covered, however, didn’t go into much detail so I’m not sure if this is the same project that she’s talking about.






There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
