Over the past few months, more and more members of the creative team behind DisneyToon Studios’ Planes have been revealed, from the director to producers to story artists. However, one glaring omission from the film’s IMDb and Wikipedia pages left folks asking, “Who exactly wrote this movie?” Now a source at Disney has given Animated Views the answer: Jeffrey M. Howard. Animation fans might know Howard as having been a staple at DisneyToons for several years, working on Tinker Bell, Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue and Pixie Hollow Games. Audiences can see Howard’s screenplay come to life when Planes flies into theaters on August 9.
