Del Toro To Produce Pinocchio, Mark Gustafson & Gris Grimly Co-direct

March 2nd, 2011 by Anne Richardson · 1 Comment · News

“This version is aimed at an audience 10 years and up, and a bit scarier than the Disney film.”

Gris Grimly’s 2002 book spookily illustrating Carlo Collodi’s 1883 story about the puppet who wants to be a real boy will now be the basis of a film. Grimly is co-directing alongside stop motion legend Mark Gustafson, whose work you last saw in The Fantastic Mr. Fox.

From Deadline:

….Nick Cave has signed on to be music consultant and the puppets and 3D elements will be developed with MacKinnon and Saunders, the UK-based facility that worked onThe Fantastic Mr. Fox, Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride, and the upcoming Frankenweenie.

They are planning to make more terrifying a story which already scares me to pieces — I’ll have to have to work on becoming more courageous in time to see it when it comes out.

Tom Cruise is attached.
