Paramount are in a tizzy at the moment as they are having to decide between two, yes that's two different versions of the same old story of Tarzan so says Deadline Hollywood.
Craig Brewer the director of the much awaited redo of 'Footloose' has already done a deal with Warner Bros. to write and direct the retelling of Edger Rice Burroughs created character 'Tarzan'. However, he wants to do this retelling over three films. But screenwriter Adam Cozard has already been working on a script to do the very same-that is to retell this story but not as we know it- this is because he wants to retell this story with a different version of the man, the myth, the legend....Tarzan.
This to me is a head scratcher as both sound promising versions of Tarzan but I don't know if they went for Cozard's script that it would cause controversy as many people might get upset that the big wig distribution houses have made the much loved and known character very different to what we all know.
Anyhew... whichever one they pick it's very clear that Warner Bros. want to put Tarzan back on the big screen and back up on that vine.
