Bringing Care-a-Lot to Life: Cast, Crew, and Production Details

[pekred23]

Dear Josh Greenbaum,

I am thrilled to present to you the script for the live action Care Bears movie which will be a live action-CGI remake of the classic animated film, bringing the beloved characters to life in a way that will captivate audiences worldwide. The story begins with The Cloud Keeper who narrates to the audience about the Care Bears and Care-a-Lot, their home in the clouds. In the story, Friend Bear and Secret Bear search for people to cheer up. They meet Kim and Jason, two lonely youngsters who recently lost their parents in a car accident. Introducing themselves, Friend Bear and Secret Bear remind the kids of their ambitions...yet neither sibling acts interested.
At an amusement park, Tenderheart Bear spots a magician's apprentice named Nicholas. While unloading a trunk of goods for his master, the "Great Fettuccini", Nicholas finds an old book with a diary-style lock. When he unlocks it, an evil spirit appears as a woman's face and corrupts him. With his help, it lays waste to the park and quests to remove all caring from the world.
Back at Care-a-Lot, the other bears work on their new invention: the Rainbow Rescue Beam, a portal that can send any bear to Earth and back. Two Care Bear cubs, Hugs and Tugs, interfere with the RRB. They bring forth unexpected visitors: Friend Bear, Secret Bear, Kim, and Jason. The bears introduce themselves to the children, and give them a tour of their home. Tenderheart Bear returns on his now-out-of-control Rainbow Roller...just before a "Cloud-Quake", caused by the spirit, ruins Care-a-Lot. Tenderheart Bear informs the other Care Bears of Nicholas' troubles on Earth. Using the Rainbow Rescue Beam, he sends Kim and Jason to the park, accompanied by Best Friend Bear, Bashful Heart Bear, Superstar Bear, and Smart Heart Bear. However, the portal malfunctions, and they find themselves lost in the Forest of Feelings. Meanwhile, the other Care Bears search for them aboard a ship-like Cloud Clipper, sailing through the skies above the Forest. Birthday Bear, Do-Your-Best Bear, Take Care Bear, Always Here Bear, True Heart Bear, Grams Bear, and the cubs stay behind in Care-a-Lot, keeping watch and waiting for news. Narrated by the wise and mystical Cloud Keeper, this live-action adaptation will bring a fresh perspective to the classic tale, blending adventure, humor, and heartwarming moments. All of the Care Bears will be getting the same belly badge even Share Bear who still has her belly badge in which depicts Two pink and blue Crossed Stylized Lollipops with Hearts opening, Champ Bear who still has his belly badge that depicts a yellow trophy with a red star on it, & Harmony Bear who still has her belly badge that depicts a smiling rainbow flower. All of the Care Bear Cousins got their own belly badge before this is how the Cousin Call is first discovered to engage in a long battle with The Care Bears against him until he & the spirit briefly regain control.
