Progress on David Fincher‘s 20,000 Leagues Under a Sea has been flattering delayed going. He’s been set to approach given before his final film (The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo) even opened, though Disney’s been hemming and hawing about what it wants to do.
As of today, it looks like they’re still not utterly prepared to pierce forward. The Jules Verne adaptation has been stalled nonetheless again, that means we expected won’t see it until 2015 during a earliest. Find out what a holdup is after a jump.
Earlier this year, it looked like 20,000 Leagues was finally prepared to get going when Australia offered a studio a $21.6 million remission to fire in a country. That set a plan on march to start sharpened there this summer. However, The Sydney Morning Herald (via The Film Stage) now reports that Disney has motionless to put off prolongation until subsequent year.
The latest check stems from casting issues. Fincher had been courting his Se7en star Brad Pitt to play a lead purpose of master harpoonist Ned Land, though a actor eventually incited down a role. There was word a few months behind that Channing Tatum could reinstate him, though apparently that hasn’t worked out.
Disappointing as it is, Disney’s perplexity about 20,000 Leagues makes some sense. Let’s not forget that John Carter — another big-budget, book-inspired, CG-heavy, sci-fi family journey — was a large wave for a studio. Another costly disaster won’t do anyone any good, so hopefully a additional few months will assistance Fincher and Disney get this one right.
20,000 Leagues is set to be Fincher’s initial film given 2011′s Dragon Tattoo. But it’s not a usually one on his plate. Fincher was in talks for a literary instrumentation Gone Girl progressing this year, and is producing a long-gestating instrumentation of Eric Powell’s comic Goon. In a meantime, he’s destined some non-movie works including dual episodes of Netflix’s House of Cards and a song video for Justin Timberlake’s “Suit Tie.”
