The Beverly Hillbillies(Animated Film)

The Beverly Hillbillies is an upcoming animated feature by Nickelodeon Animation that is produced by CBS and released on Paramount Plus. It is based on the television series of the same name (which ran from 1962–71) and is the second film adaptation of the Beverly Hillbillies after the 1993 feature and the first animated adaptation. The film follows a poor hillbilly named Jed Clampett , who becomes a billionaire after oil is discovered on his property. 
== Premise ==
The film follows Jed Clampett, an impoverished and widowed hillbilly living alongside an oil-rich swamp with his daughter and mother-in-law. After oil is discovered on his property by a surveyor for the OK Oil Company who realizes the size of the oil field, and the company pays him a fortune for the right to drill on his land. Patriarch Jed's cousin Pearl Bodine prods him to move to California after being told his modest property could yield millions of dollars, and pressures him into taking her son Jethro along. The family moves into a mansion in wealthy Beverly Hills, California, next door to Jed's banker, Milburn Drysdale, and his wife, Margaret, who has zero tolerance for hillbillies.
The Clampetts bring a moral, unsophisticated, and minimalistic lifestyle to the swanky, sometimes self-obsessed and superficial community. Double entendres and cultural misconceptions are the core of the film's humor. Plots often involve Drysdale's outlandish efforts to keep the Clampetts' money in his bank, and his wife's efforts to rid the neighborhood of "those hillbillies". The family's periodic attempts to return to the mountains are often prompted by Granny's perceiving a slight from one of the "city folk".
