Thanks to a post on the PS Blog we just heard that the two stars will join the upcoming game, with Hugh Laurie prepared to reunite with his long-time comedy partner Stephen Fry to voice the dastardly Newton.

Other big names will come to the game include Peter Serafinowicz (Shaun of the Dead), Simon Greenall (Alan Partridge, Wimbledon) and Tara Strong (The Fairly OddParents). More of the cast will be revealed as time goes on, with Media Molecule teasing a fan favourite is set to return.

LittleBigPlanet 3 is set to hit PS4 and PS3 in November. Sony also recently announced Run Sackboy! Run!, a new platform survival game for the PS Vita and mobile devices.
