RIHANNA will take on her first animation film role in Happy Smekday.

The Bajan superstar and The Big Bang Theory actor Jim Parsons will lend their voices to the lead roles in the upcoming DreamWorks animation about a friendly alien race who invade the Earth in order to hide from their enemy.
Tim Johnson - who directed popular animation films Antz and Over The Hedge - is on board as director and Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember are writing the screenplay, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The comedy is an adaptation of Adam Rex’s popular book The True Meaning of Smekday.
The plot will see an outcast alien (Parsons) go on the run across America with a human girl (Rihanna) after he accidentally informs the enemy of the aliens’ whereabouts.                                            –TS
