Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Tina Fey and Robert Downey, Jr. are in talks for Mastermind, an animated tale from Dreamworks, scheduled for a Nov. 5, 2010 release.  

Produced by Ben Stiller’s production company, Red Hour Films, it’s a satirical send-up of the superhero genre a la The Incredibles. The story revolves around a super villain who must find a new motivation after killing his arch-rival, Uberman, in the opening scene of the movie.

Sounds fun, and I love animated tales that feature voices of celebrities. Contrary to what some say, I think that celebrity voices can draw in a lot of viewers who might not watch the film otherwise. What do you think?
