- JULIET
Although his name was, just last week, said to be in the
running to take on Van Helsing with Tom Cruise, producer Frank Beddor has now
confirmed that Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sander's next
project will be The Juliet, an adaptation of Alfred Bester's 1954 short story
"Fondly Fahrenheit." He also posted an artistic rendering of the
project's sci-fi world, which you can check out below.

In development for some time, Beddor spoke about the project
in a 2010 interview with I Am Entertainment Magazine.
"It’s lovers on the run in space," Beddor said,
"so think ‘Bonnie and Clyde’ in space, but with a very unique Bonnie who
has a secret. The tone of it is close to the ‘Bourne Identity’ franchise."
Beddor is producing alongside Chuck Roven with a screenplay
by Henry Bean. Production is slated to begin sometime in 2013.
It's currently unclear whether or not Sanders' commitment to
The Juliet will prevent him from signing on for Van Helsing, but check back for
details as soon as they become available.
