The Oregonian reported on December 19, 2008 that the studio laid off 65 people and canceled their post-Coraline followup, Jack and Ben's Animated Adventure. The CG film had a troubled production history and had been in development at Laika since 2005. Last year, the film's original writer and director, Jorgen Klubien, left the project over "creative differences." Mulan director Barry Cook was the new director when the studio pulled the plug. According to a Laika spokeswoman, the studio will make announcements about new projects early next year.
