The Jonas Brothers, including little bro Frankie, have signed on with 20th Century Fox to star in Walter the Farting Dog.

Walter the Farting Dog is being adapted by Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen into a family film based on the best-selling series of books written by William Kotzwinkle and Glenn Murray.

The story line goes something like this,

The title character in the ‘Walter’ books is a fat dog with severe flatulence.  The brothers play musicians whose parents are asked to care for the dog by an aunt just before she passes away.  While his brothers play music, Frankie and the gaseous hound get involved in a plot that involves liberating a koi fish and thwarting jewel thieves.

Peter Farrelly, who will produce and maybe direct the movie with his brother Booby, told Variety,

By the time they’ve driven the dog home, everybody’s head is out the window of the family station wagon but Frankie, and only because he has a serious sinus problem and doesn’t notice the stench coming from Walter.

Sound pretty hilarious to me.  I know my kids are going to love it.  What do you think…is this a movie you would go see?
