Blake Shelton is set to make a return to the silver screen in 2019 with news that he?s been cast in the upcoming animated movie Uglydolls, for which he?ll voice the character of Ox.
Based on the line of plush toys launched in 2001, Uglydolls ? slated for a May premiere ? has already landed Kelly Clarkson, Nick Jonas, Pitbull, Wanda Sykes, and Gabriel Iglesias for starring roles. Shelton, who previously provided his voice for a role in The Angry Birds Movie two years ago, plays a character who fancies himself as the ?Mayor of Uglyville,? the fictional town where the story takes place. The Uglydolls feature film, produced by STXfilms, is slated to be the precursor to an animated television series and will include a soundtrack released on Atlantic Records.
