HANNIBAL THE ANIMATED -- Some interesting news about Vin Diesel's Hannibal project:
Diesel in deal for "Hannibal" cartoon at BET

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) -
Vin Diesel will take on the Roman Empire in a new BET Networks cartoon series about military leader Hannibal.

Diesel will voice the noted general, and his One Race Prods. company is producing the show, titled "Hannibal the Conqueror."

The half-hour series will span the life of Hannibal, from his tutelage as a warrior under his father, Hamilcar Barca, to his scaling of the Alps with an army of elephants, and his invasion of Italy.

[...]
Presumably the cartoon will be in English rather than Punic. But don't worry, the Hannibal movie is still going forward as well.
