Director Rob Marshall now has a little more time to find a fitting actress to star opposite Johnny Depp in The Thin Man, as Warner Bros. has put a halt to production on the remake.  Depp was set to star as Nick Charles, one half of a married couple who solves murder mysteries while bantering back and forth and almost getting killed themselves.  This delay is, at the moment, less of a behind-the-scenes melodrama and more due to practicality.  Deadline reports that Depp is eager to take a break between films.  This also allows Marshall to move forward with his long-gestating Disney project, Into the Woods, a feature version of Stephen Sondheim's fairy-tale musical.  Though The Thin Man was never officially greenlit, there is also some talk of budget concerns, which will likely push back the planned November start while the particulars are sorted out. ]]></description>

Academy Award-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood (Alice in Wonderland) puts her amazing vision and expert craftsmanship to work bringing to life the characters of Snow White and the Huntsman and presenting them to modern audiences through astonishingly intricate and carefully assembled designs.  In a film where symbolism is crucial to the story and wardrobe is integral, Atwood’s contributions blend seamlessly into a world that’s both fantastical and realistic and speaks volumes about the characters.  We sat down with Atwood at a roundtable interview to talk Snow White and the Huntsman and why it was an amazing treat for her to design costumes that reflected the themes of the iconic story and helped the actors transition into the world of their characters.  She also discussed her upcoming film, The Thin Man, directed by Rob Marshall and starring Johnny Depp.  Hit the jump to read our interview.

Surrounded by a gallery of the costumes she designed for the film, the visionary designer told us about her collaboration with Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart, what distinguished her work on this film from her award-winning contributions to other films, and how she took a concept and made it work physically without compromising the design so that the costumes could accommodate the action and evolve with the story.

Atwood began her career as a costume designer on Michael Apted’s Firstborn, which starred Sarah Jessica Parker and Robert Downey, Jr.  While living in New York, Atwood was able to collaborate with Jonathan Demme on Married to the Mob, ...]]></description>

Warner Bros. is close to setting a female lead opposite Tom Cruise in the sci-fi thriller All You Need Is Kill.  Emily Blunt is in talks to pair up with Cruise in the film, which centers on a soldier in a war against aliens who finds himself reliving his last day over and over after being killed.  In the Source Code-ish story, Cruise’s character becomes a better soldier as a result of the time loop, as he’s essentially in an unending series of rounds of Call of Duty multiplayer.  If I’ve learned anything from COD, it’s that lots and lots of practice makes me slightly less sucky.  Hit the jump for more on All You Need Is Kill and the prospects of Blunt teaming up with Johnny Depp.

In All You Need Is Kill, Variety reports that Blunt will be playing another soldier who fights alongside Cruise, but no other plot details are given.  Doug Liman (Jumper) is directing the adaptation of the graphic novel of the same name.  I’m a big fan of Blunt, and even though she killed in The Devil Wears Prada, it’s nice to see her stretching her acting chops across a variety of genres.  She starred alongside Matt Damon in last year’s sci-fi drama The Adjustment Bureau and will be seen later this summer in Rian Johnson’s time-travel pic Looper, and she recently starred alongside Ewan McGregor in the drama Salmon Fishing in the Yemen.

Blunt’s penchant for sci-fi doesn’t mean she’s leaving her comedy roots behind, ...]]></description>

It’s time for another shortlist story as apparently every actress in Hollywood is looking to star opposite Johnny Depp in the remake of The Thin Man. Chicago and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides director Rob Marshall is onboard to helm the adaptation of Dashiell Hammett’s novel, which itself was turned into a 1934 feature film. The story centers on private detective-turned-socialite Nick Charles and his charming wife Nora as they’re drawn into investigating a murder. Depp is, obviously, set to play the dashing detective, and now Marshall is set to meet with a slew of actresses to cast the lovely Nora. Hit the jump to find out who’s up for the gig.

Per Deadline, the actresses interested in taking the part are: Carey Mulligan, Emma Stone, Kristen Wiig, Emily Blunt, Rachel Weisz, Eva Green, Amy Adams, and Isla Fisher. It’s quite an eclectic group of talented ladies, but there’s obviously a leaning towards those that have at least some degree of comedic chops. Out of this batch, I’m partial to Stone, Wiig and Blunt. Mulligan is unendingly talented, but her comedic talents haven’t exactly been extensively on display before. That’s not to say she doesn’t have any, but she’s not the first actress that comes to mind for a witty detective story.

I think Stone, Wiiig and Blunt are all swell, so I’d be happy if any of those actresses nabbed the part. Stone is fantastic in literally everything she does, but she may be a bit too young to ...]]></description>

Director Rob Marshall is heading back to musicals. After helming Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Marshall signed on to direct a remake of the 1934 film The Thin Man with Johnny Depp attached to star, and now he’s set to reteam with Disney on a feature film version of Stephen Sondheim’s fairy tale-themed musical Into the Woods. Marshall got his start as a choreographer before bursting onto the scene with 2002’s Oscar-winning movie musical Chicago, and now he's poised to return to the world of song and dance. Hit the jump for more.

Sondheim’s 1980s Broadway musical “intertwines several classic fairytale characters, including Cinderella, Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood, with the story of a baker and his wife’s attempt to have a family.” It’s no surprise that Disney jumped at the chance to put Into the Woods into development given the fact that every other movie currently in production seems to be a reboot/remake of a classic fairy tale.

THR reports that James Lapine, who wrote the original musical, is currently at work on the script and Marshall expects Sondheim to contribute new songs to the feature. The director is said to be considering either Into the Woods and The Thin Man as his next directorial effort. When we last reported on The Thin Man, Billy Ray had been brought on to work on the script, and now Marshall reveals that they’re “very close to having a first draft."

Marshall also gave a brief update on Pirates of the Caribbean ...]]></description>

When it comes to writing a hard-boiled detective story, few are better than Dashiell Hammett (The Maltese Falcon). As for adapting those stories to the screen, few do it as expertly as Billy Ray (State of Play). Ray has been tapped to pen the current Warner Bros. adaptation of Hammett’s novel The Thin Man, starring Johnny Depp as Nick Charles, a retired private eye who maintains his drinking habit. Although Jerry Stahl (Bad Boys II) and David Koepp (Spider-Man) were initially on board for the script, director Rob Marshall decided to go in another direction and Ray landed the job. Personally, I think Marshall made the right choice.

The Thin Man is more of a light-hearted murder mystery than Hammett’s other works, as the plot revolves around a married couple solving crimes while bantering back and forth. Though Depp can easily portray a wise-cracking, alcoholic, the equally witty and thrill-seeking Nora Charles has yet to be cast. The success of The Thin Man, in my opinion, balances on that chemistry. Hit the jump for more.

Risky Business also reports that this project is a priority for Warner Bros. and the pick-up of Ray is a good win. Ray is a hot commodity as of late, having written Peter Pan Begins for Columbia. He’s also writing for A Captain’s Duty, a story about a boat captain’s stand-off against Somali pirates starring Tom Hanks as Captain Richard Phillips; the American remake of The Secrets in Their Eyes; and an untitled mystery adventure project with ...]]></description>

Screenwriter David Koepp (Spider-Man) has been tapped to write Rob Marshall's adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's The Thin Man starring Johnny Depp.  The 1934 novel follows retired detective Nick Charles who is trying to happily live his life with his charming wife Nora and their dog Asta.  However, when one of Charles' former client Clyde Wynant goes missing and his secretary turns up dead, Nick is reluctantly drawn back into the case and the web of intrigue created by Wynant's terrible family. Also, everyone in the book, particularly Nick and Nora, drinks like a fish but hardly anyone gets drunk.  Hammett's novel was successfully adapted into a franchise starring William Powell and Myrna Loy although Hammett only wrote one novel featuring Nick and Nora.

Hit the jump for more on this story and my thoughts on adapting The Thin Man.

While The Lone Ranger currently works through its budget issues, Depp is looking to stay busy and The Thin Man would provide a reunion not only with Marshall (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) but with Koepp who wrote and directed the adaptation of Stephen King's Secret Window.  Deadline reports that there's no new script of The Thin Man so Koepp will be working from scratch.

However, Deadline adds that this won't be a direct adaptation of the book but rather "the original intention is to take elements of the first two films and work them into one film, putting it into a period setting and giving it a Sherlock Holmes-like stylized treatment."  ...]]></description>

Last year, we reported that Johnny Depp wanted to reunite with his Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides director Rob Marshall for a new adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's The Thin Man.  We have now received a press release confirming that Marshall is on board to direct and that John DeLuca (Nine) will produce through the duo's LUCAMAR Productions company.  While I was hoping that Marshall would direct the film adaptation of the Broadway musical Wicked, it's possible that the project is stuck so far down in development hell that there's no way anyone can get to it.  And that being said, Marshall is a talented director and I think Depp is a great fit for detective-turned-socialite Nick Charles.

Now the questions become "When will this shoot in relation to The Lone Ranger?" and "Which actress would make a good Nora Charles?"  Hit the jump for the press release.

Here's the press release:

ROB MARSHALL and JOHN DeLUCA officially sign-on to THE THIN MAN remake.
Marshall confirmed to direct the film and Marshall and DeLuca’s LUCAMAR Productions has come on- board as a producing partner. 

MAY 09, 2011 (New York, NY) – Rob Marshall and John DeLuca have officially signed on to the Warner Bros. planned remake of THE THIN MAN.  The pair will produce the film via their LUCAMAR Productions banner.  Award-winning director Marshall is also confirmed to direct. The film will reteam Marshall with Johnny Depp, who is attached to star in the project.  The two just worked together on PIRATES OF ...]]></description>

Screenwriter/author Jerry Stahl (Bad Boys II) has been tapped to pen the screenplay for the remake of The Thin Man starring Johnny Depp. Rob Marshall (Chicago), who recently teamed with Depp on Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, is in negotiations to direct the flick. The Thin Man centers on private detective-turned-socialite Nick Charles and his charming wife Nora as they’re drawn into investigating a murder. The 1934 film was itself adapted from the novel by Dashiell Hammett.

Heat Vision reports that Depp will produce the film with his Infinitum Nihil partner Christi Dembrowski. Warner Bros. was taking their time in finding the right screenwriter who could contemporize the story without altering the period setting. Depp is currently getting ready to film Dark Shadows for director Tim Burton, and is also attached to The Lone Ranger with Rango director Gore Verbinski at the helm. ]]></description>

Johnny Depp is looking to star in a remake/re-adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's The Thin Man and he wants his Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides director Rob Marshall to direct.  The Thin Man centers on private detective-turned-socialite Nick Charles and his charming wife Nora as they're drawn into investigating a murder.  While I'm sure Depp would have a ball playing the gleefully drunk Nick, he wouldn't be able to steal scenes like he does as Jack Sparrow.  The Thin Man requires a charming interplay between the leads like William Powell and Myrna Loy were able to pull off when the book was first adapted in 1934.

Vulture also reports that while Depp may want Marshall to direct, The Thin Man currently has no script, and that Marshall is interested in helming the adaptation of the stage play Wicked for Universal.  Marshall's name was first mentioned as a possible director for the film back in July along with J.J. Abrams, James Mangold, and Ryan Murphy.  Of those four candidates, Marshall would definitely be my top choice.  However, a Thin Man starring Johnny Depp also sounds like plenty of fun. ]]></description>
