Last month it was reported that Andrew Stanton would be back in the director’s chair for two films: a live action film and an animated film. The animated film in question would be a sequel to his 2003 co-directed and written film Finding Nemo, which won the Oscar for Best Animated feature film.

Well, one month later and it’s being reported that Ellen DeGeneres is in talks to reprise her role of Dory, the blue tang fish with short term memory loss. No deal has been confirmed as of yet, but the Nemo sequel is tentatively slated for a 2016 release.
