The animated comedy UN GALLO CON MUCHOS HUEVOS ("The Ballsy Chicken") from Mexican filmmakers and brothers, Gabriel & Rodolfo Riva Palacio Alatrist, marks their third film in a trilogy based on their Huevos Cartoons. However, their two other animated projects were too racy for American audiences, according to their star Omar Chaparro who voices a duck in UN GALLO CON MUCHOS HUEVOS. This film marks the first time one of their films has been distributed in the United States, and they are talking to CineMovie about the hardships of animating a 3D film in Mexico and keeping the humor more PG this time around.
