    LOS ANGELES --

    Reel FX Animation Studios announced that Oscar®-nominated director Chris Miller will helm its upcoming original feature, the currently Untitled Wish Project. Miller, a longtime DreamWorks Animation filmmaker, wrote and directed the hit film Puss in Boots, which garnered an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature Film, and Shrek The Third, the third hit installment in the acclaimed franchise. Both titles achieved huge commercial success at the box office and generated a combined gross of nearly $1.4 billion.

    The Untitled Wish Project storyline is being kept under-wraps, but the film will take place in both the real world and a world of mythical creatures where human wishes are heard and dealt with.

    Jared Mass, who heads up Reel FX’s Originals Unit, said of Miller, “He brings a vision to the film that is sure to resonate with audiences all over the world.”

    Reel FX Animation Studios is a top producer of animation for every major studio as well as a producer of original content including the film Book Of Life, which was produced alongside Guillermo Del Toro for Twentieth Century Fox. Reel FX is currently in production on its next original feature with Paramount Animation and Walden Media based on the kids’ graphic novel “Monster on the Hill,” which is set to be released in 2020.

    Matt Floca, the performing arts institution's new executive director and chief operating officer, is leading a series of tours this month that show water damage and intrusion to expansion joints, marble slabs and exterior pavers. Participants are guided through the building's water and HVAC systems along with parking garages and loading docks that are said to be in need of repair.

    The sessions began earlier this month while Congress was in recess and included staff for a bipartisan group of lawmakers, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, the top Democrats on Capitol Hill. A representative for Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser was also included on the tour.

    Similar access has been provided for several corporate and individual donors and in the coming weeks, Floca is expected to provide tours for the lawmakers themselves and members of the media.

    Assessing a suddenly controversial operation
    Once one of Washington's relatively few apolitical spaces, the Kennedy Center has become a source of controversy during President Donald Trump's second term. Shortly after returning to office, Trump ousted the institution's previous leadership and replaced it with a handpicked board of directors.

    The president's name was added to the building's facade and its programming took a Trump-friendly turn, serving as a venue for events such as the premiere of first lady Melania Trump's documentary, "Melania."
