In WE BOUGHT A ZOO, Matt Damon buys a run down animal park and Scarlett Johansson comes with it as the head zoo keeper. In this clip from WE BOUGHT A ZOO, Scarlett Johannson's character wants to know why Matt Damon moved his family to a zoo that's eventually going to close.

Cameron Crowe directs WE BOUGHT A ZOO based on the book “We Bought a Zoo: The Amazing True Story of a Young Family, a Broken Down Zoo and the 200 Zoo Animals that Changed Their Lives Forever” by Benjamin Mee. The Jerry Maguire and Almost Famous director takes on the true story about a single dad who decides his family needs a fresh start, so he and his two children move to the most unlikely of places: a zoo. With the help of an eclectic staff, and with many misadventures along the way, the family works to return the dilapidated zoo to its former wonder and glory.

Cameron Crowe hasn't directed a feature film since 2005's Elizabethtown. He has since directed two documentaries, one on Pearl Jam, Pearl Jam Twenty and The Union, a behind the scenes look at Elton John and Leon Russell's collaborative album.

The WE BOUGHT A ZOO script was written by Cameron Croe and Aline Brosh McKenna
