Now this is interesting, news is that Baz Luhrmann‘s so far untitled project is starting to take shape. According to Variety through Coming Soon it’s going to be some form of epic Australian version of Gone with the wind (Not Star Wars, like John’s watching right now). Not only that he’s courting some big names for the movie:
Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman, who earlier this year tried to get the all-Australian film Eucalyptus off the ground, are poised to try again with a period epic that Baz Luhrmann will direct later this year.
Luhrmann is collaborating with Collateral screenwriter and fellow Aussie Stuart Beattie on a romance being called an Oz Gone With the Wind and expected to be made through Fox.
Sounds very interesting, and Luhrmann hasn’t put a foot wrong yet, his stunning visuals and sense of theatrical cinema are just a marvel to watch and listen to. Here’s hoping he brings us more wonderful cinematics.
