Plot

Fed up with being targeted by the neighborhood bully, 10-year-old Lucas Nickle vents his frustrations on the anthill in his front yard ... until the insects shrink him to the size of a bug with a magic elixir. Convicted of "crimes against the colony," Lucas can only regain his freedom by living with the ants and learning their ways.

About The Ant Bully

The Ant Bully is a 2006 American animated fantasy comedy film loosely based on the children's book of the same name. Written and directed by John A.

It stars the voices of Julia Roberts, Nicolas Cage, Meryl Streep, Paul Giamatti, Regina King, Bruce Campbell, Lily Tomlin, and Zach Tyler Eisen. The Ant Bully was theatrically released on July 28, 2006 by Warner Bros. Pictures in the United States, and received mixed to favorable reviews. It underperformed at the box-office, grossing $55.2 million on a budget of $45‒50 million. As a result of its financial performance, DNA Productions underwent several layoffs before it shut down the same year.
