In Production

-Academy Award winner Ang Lee has signed on to direct 1949, an epic love story set in the final years of the Chinese Civil War.

The $40 million Chinese language production will star Chang Chen and Korea's Song Hye-kyo and shooting will start in December.

- Dreamworks are jumping on the Pirates band wagon as they bring the story of legendary pirate Blackbeard to the big screen.

Gladiator writer David Franzoni has been bought in to pen the script and Enchanted's Barry Josephson is also aboard the project to produce.

- Hellboy director Guillermo Del Toro will co-produce the big screen adaptations of David Moody's 2006 novel Hater.

The story revolves around an epidemic of random violence that breaks out where people are lashing out without warning.

Del Toro was originally expected to direct the project but his new commitments in New Zealand on The Hobbit has forced them to look elsewhere.
