"Shark Tale" Movie Synopsis: Oscar (Will Smith) is a fast-talking little fish who dreams big. But his big dreams land him in hot water when a great white lie turns him into an unlikely hero. At first, his fellow fish swallow Oscar’s story hook, line and sinker and he is showered with fame and fortune. It’s all going along swimmingly, until it starts to become clear that Oscar’s tale about being the defender of the Reef is all wet. Oscar is finding out that being a hero comes at a Market Price when his lie threatens to make him the Catch of the Day. Now he has to tread water until he can get the scales to tip back in his favor again.

“Shark Tale” stars the voices of Academy Award® nominee Will Smith (“Ali”) as Oscar, a hustler, who has always been able to fin-agle his way out of trouble, until now; two-time Academy Award® winner Robert De Niro (“Raging Bull,” “The Godfather, Part II”) as Lino, a great white shark at the top of the Reef’s food chain; Oscar® winner Renée Zellweger (“Cold Mountain”) as Angie, a beautiful angel fish who harbors a secret crush on Oscar; Academy Award® winner Angelina Jolie (“Girl, Interrupted”) as Lola, the femme fatale, a dragon fish who uses her feminine wiles to get what she wants; Jack Black (“School of Rock”) as Lino’s son Lenny, a great white shark who is a closet vegetarian; and multiple Oscar®-nominated director Martin Scorsese (“Gangs of New York,” “Goodfellas”) as Sykes, a puffer fish who is full of hot air and never misses an opportunity to make a few extra clams.

Rounding out the main cast are: veteran actor Peter Falk (“Columbo”) as Ira Feinberg, a shark who is long in the tooth, but still has plenty of bite left; Michael Imperioli (“The Sopranos”) as Lino’s oldest son Frankie, a chip off the old shark; Vincent Pastore (“The Sopranos”) as Luca, an oily octopus, which makes him the perfect right-hand man; and Doug E. Doug and Ziggy Marley as Bernie and Ernie, two Rastafarian jelly fish with a stinging sense of humor.

“Shark Tale” is directed by Eric “Bibo” Bergeron and Vicky Jenson, with Rob Letterman serving as co-director. Bill Damaschke, Janet Healy and Allison Segan are producing.
