Bender's Game

Bender's Game is the third of the four Direct-to-DVD films, to be released in the holiday season of 2008.

As of 8 July, 2007 the voice acting for all the films (which includes the fifth season) is finished, according to Lauren Tom. Guest stars include George Takei and Rich Little as themselves.

On the commentary of Bender's Big Score, David X. Cohen says Bender's Game is probably going to be released by Christmas, 2008. Since then, Bender's Game has been officially confirmed for release in November 2008 in Europe, suggesting it will probably be out before Christmas in America, quite possibly on the one year anniversary of Bender's Big Score.

While plot details are still sketchy, we know that at least one plot will match the "Fantasy" genre more closely than "Sci-Fi". A preview of Bender's Game which came with The Beast with a Billion Backs. After doing some demolition derby action with the Planet Express Ship, Fry, Leela, the Professor, Mom and her sons end up in a fantasy realm, where they all become fantasy-like beings and encounter fantasy versions of their friends. There will be several Dungeons and Dragons references. The teaser image indicates that plans were originally in place for Fry to become a Gollum like character. However the preview indicates that while this may or may not be happening, Fry will be turning into a dragon at some point.
