Time was back in 2013, I wrote a post about a wonderful app called Marcel the Shell With Shoes On. Brilliant as it was, I wondered if we would see Marcel again. And sure enough, he's back!
Brainchild of writer/director Dean Fleischer-Camp and writer/actress Jenny Slate, Marcel is a shell you want to hug.
For those of you who have been living under ashell rock, Marcel originated as a bit Slate joked around with while feeling cramped in a hotel room, she told MTV News.
Since then, there have been multiple stop-motion short films starring Marcel, as well as the first 2011 children’s book centered around the little guy. And that’s not all: there are plans for a Marcel movie musical as well!
Marcel the Shell: The Most Surprised I’ve Ever Been, hits shelves October 21.
As the title implies, the follow-up to the 2011 bestseller “Marcel the Shell: Things About Me,” chronicles the most surprising incident in Marcel’s life. When Marcel finds himself flying through the air (you'll have to wait to find how he does this), one of the things he sees down below is his grandmother’s house.
Personally, I can't get past Marcel's grandma's French bread, the place Marcel sleeps, of course, when visiting.

This is very surprising!
