Herbie Makes A Comeback

Submitted by princessleah

Edited by princessleah

The adorable Volkswagon Bug from our youth, Herbie, is set to drive back onto the bigscreen.

Variety reports:

Disney has retooled its "Love Bug" franchise, setting Angela Robinson (D.E.B.S.) to direct Herbie: Fully Loaded, a Tom Lennon and Robert Ben Garant-scripted film that puts the famed Volkswagen in the world of NASCAR racing.

Aaahh, bestill my beating nostalgic heart!
