Guillermo del Toro is adapting and directing a "futuristically revamped" Wind in the Willows for Disney. Michael Eisner must be hitting the ether again. Del Toro has a pretty good track record for legitimately scary movies -- I haven't seen "Blade II", but "The Devil's Backbone", a ghost story set in an orphanage during the Spanish Civil War, was gorgeous and unnerving. Next up: David Cronenberg to announce his remake of "The Jungle Book", and Peter Jackson decides to adapt Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle. 09:31AM «
