LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Chris O'Donnell, last seen onscreen in "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl," and Jack McBrayer, best known for playing Kenneth the page on "30 Rock," are the live-action stars of the CGI-blended movie "Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore."

The movie continues the story of the battle between cats and dogs for control of Earth. Ron Friedman and Steve Bencich -- who have made family movies and talking animals their specialty with "Brother Bear," "Chicken Little" and "Open Season" -- wrote the script.

The Warner Bros./Village Roadshow film is being directed by Brad Peyton in his feature debut. His short "Evelyn: The Cutest Dead Girl" drew acclaim at the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival.

O'Donnell next appears opposite Mark Wahlberg in the videogame-based crime drama "Max Payne."
