Chuck Russell is set to direct a 3D film
by Sharon Swart
Chuck Russell is set to direct a 3D reworking of "Arabian Nights." He co-wrote the script with Barry P. Ambrose.
The action adventure, with an estimated budget of $70 million, will be financed by Inferno Entertainment, with production slated to begin in April.
In a new spin on the classic, the story follows a young commander who, after his king is killed in a palace coup, joins forces with Sinbad, Aladdin and his genie to rescue Scheherazade and her kingdom from dark powers.
"Through the use of a new generation of visual technologies, we will be able to quite literally take audiences around the world on a magic carpet ride," Russell said.
