Knighted actor Patrick Stewart to play animated poop in 'The Emoji Movie'
It's every actor's dream to play a universal role, and the legendary Patrick Stewart may have won on that front once and for all. Stewart will voice Poop in this year's animated The Emoji Movie, Sony announced on Thursday.
The announcement came via tweet from the Sony Pictures Twitter account, which used the words "distinguished" and Poop as a proper noun in the same sentence.

To quote Mashable Entertainment Editor Josh Dickey, "Jonathan Frakes was 'No. 1,' but it turns out that Patrick Stewart was No. 2."
The Emoji Movie hits theaters August 4th.
