David Arquette and Courteney Cox are producing a quirky hybrid live-action/animated pilot for MTV tentatively titled Dirt Squirrel.
The project features a mix of animated and live-action characters - both animal and human - set against an animated background. The pilot, which already has been shot, stars Arquette as crime-fighting superhero Dirt Squirrel, who takes on neighborhood villains with his own martial-arts style while spewing snappy one-liners.
As the title character, Arquette performs in a costume with prosthetics. Dirt Squirrel also gets help from a crime-fighting squadron known as the League of Super Nuts, which includes two teens: skateboarder Merlin Ipswich (Jeff Braine) and "rebel grrrl" Jeanie Ipswich (Brittany Finamore).
In addition, the pilot features Cox, Paul Reubens and Lukas Haas as a trio of villains.
