So one of my favourite writers (Neil Gaiman) and a script-writer from pulp fiction (Roger Avary)! Have collaborated to give us a screenplay for a new film based upon the poem of Beowulf; Ray Winstone as Beowulf should be fun if nothing else, the suitably creepy Crispin Glover is to play Grendel but even more suitably is Angelina Jolie playing his mother... how fitting? John Malkovich in a so-far undisclosed role, interesting cast-list to say the least.
Anyways it's being filmed as a performance capture animation piece and I for one am extremely interested to see how it turns out.
2007 seems so far away right now.
