Ice Age director Chris Wedge is developing a live-action movie based on Kirsten Bakis' fantasy novel Lives of the Monster Dogs. First published in 1998, the book is about a pack of super-intelligent dogs that mimic human mannerisms, becoming instant celebrities when their existence is revealed to the public.
