Here are a few interesting and/or noteworthy projects that were recently added to IMDbPro's database of development titles:
Trouble with the Curve – A week after Clint Eastwood announced his return to acting with the baseball-themed, father-daughter drama for director Robert Lorenz, the pair have set their sights on Oscar winner Sandra Bullock for the role of Eastwood's daughter. Warner Bros. is producing.
Untitled Dr. Seuss Biopic – It's been hard to keep up with the number of development projects Johnny Depp's been attaching himself to lately. But, one of the more intriguing ones is the life story of popular children's book writer Theodor Geisel. Depp's eyeing the lead role and producing through his Infinitum Nihil company. Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures are also on board to produce.
Perry Mason – In addition to nabbing Adam Gibgot's Accidental Genius pitch for Warner Bros., Robert Downey Jr.'s Team Downey is looking to bring the iconic attorney to the big screen using the original 1930s-set novels written by Erle Stanley Gardner as the film's source material. The Iron Man himself is considering taking on the titular role.
The Liability – Tim Roth stars opposite Peter Mullan and Talulah Riley in this British thriller from director Craig Viveiros and writer John Wrathall. Corona Pictures' Richard Johns and Rupert Jermyn produce the film that Deadline describes as a "a darkly comic road trip."
The Poet in Exile – What if legendary rock star and former Doors front man, Jim Morrison, staged his death in 1971? That's the basis for this drama based on fellow Doors rocker Ray Manzarek's bestselling novel and produced by ClubHouse Entertainment. Tim and Liz Sullivan will write the project with Gavin Heffernan.
