Christopher McQuarrie to Rewrite Jack the Giant Killer

Bryan Singer is calling in his ringer and getting Christopher McQuarrie to re-write his Jack the Giant Killer film. Mark Bomback had originally handed in a draft, but clearly Singer was not happy with it.

Filmonic says:

Christopher McQuarrie, writer of The Usual Suspects and Valkyrie, will once again be working with Bryan Singer on Jack the Giant Killer. McQuarrie is currently working on the latest draft of the script, with New Line aiming to start shooting in July.

Singer is about to begin casting for the fantasy adventure, the tale of which is set in motion when a princess is kidnapped, threatening a long-standing peace between men and giants. A young farmer is given an opportunity to lead a dangerous expedition to the giants’ kingdom in hope of rescuing her.

Now we are still waiting to see if McQuarrie’s script for Wolverine 2 is as good as they are saying it is.

Jack the Giant Killer is an adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk, and I am really curious to see what they do with this.
