If you grew up on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales such as The Snow Queen, The Little Mermaid or The Ugly Duckling, you will be happy to hear that Fox 2000 is planning a musical movie about him starring Ansel Elgort!
The musical fantasy will feature original music from Wicked's Stephen
Schwartz and will, as 'Deadline' reports, follow Andersen who as a
young man gets trapped in a world of his own imagination. As he searches
for a way back to reality, he comes face-to-face with characters from
his own fairy tales, nearly all of whom try to trap him in their world
forever.The project is planned as a potential musical movie franchise.
Life of Pi's David Magee is penning the script! The studio apparently
paid a seven digit sum for the pitch.
FIRST 'YELLOWSTONE' TEASER
STARRING KEVIN COSTNER!
Yellowstone starts this summer June 20th
Paramount Network has released first teaser for their June 2018 series YELLOWSTONE which boasts a rather stellar cast Kevin Costner, Wes Bentley, Kelly Reilly, Luke Grimes, Cole Hauser, Dave Annable, Danny Huston, Josh Lucas, Gretchen Mol...
It follows John Dutton, who controls the largest contiguous ranch in
USA, under constant attack by those it borders — land developers, an
Indian reservation, and America’s first National Park. It is an intense
study of a violent world far from media scrutiny where land grabs make
developers billions, and politicians are bought and sold by the world’s
largest oil and lumber corporations. Where drinking water poisoned by
fracking wells and unsolved murders are not news: they are a consequence
of living in the new frontier. It is the best and worst of America seen
through the eyes of a family that represents both.
