For some time, Jan Pinkava was credited as the sole director of next year’s Disney/Pixar flick, Ratatouille. However, it was announced last spring that Brad Bird had taken over the project. Soon afterward, word arrived that Bob Peterson would serve co-directing duties for Ratatouille. That latter piece of information was found through The Internet Movie Database, as was this latest news. Surprisingly, the site has removed Peterson from the credits, with Pinkava now filling that co-director status. Of course, the user-submitted nature of IMDB calls for this report to be examined rather than taken as fact.
Rumor mill: Pinkava replaces Peterson as Ratatouille co-director?
