The film "Juliet«, Which still does not have a script, actors, equipment, far from it, only has a plot, has, just today, confirmed to the director.
Will James Mangold, who previously directed the western «The 3:10 Train»Who will direct the film.
"Juliet", the film, is an adaptation of the book with the same name, written by Anne fortier. Universal Pictures acquired the rights, and it will be Mangold himself together with Cathy Konrad who will take care of the film's production.
From what is already known, the story of "Juliet" covers various historical times, from Medieval Siena to the present, and what it does is narrate the process of discovery of a woman, that there is the possibility that she is a descendant of the people who inspired one of the most incredible and tragic love stories of all time.
It kind of reminds me of films that we have already seen. but the idea of reincarnations as the central, nodal theme of the film, it seems to me that it does not fail. And if the director, who has already excelled in filming western scenarios, is the one who is in charge of saying what is going and what is not going, I don't think he will fail much.
As has been known, only for 2010 we will have more and better news.
