Variety is reporting that Leonardo DiCaprio's production company, Appian Way, is set to produce a new
Little Red Riding Hood movie... with a Gothic twist. They've already picked up David Leslie Johnson to write the script, he wrote the creepy looking
Orphan. In researching to make sure this was accurate, everyone had a suggestion for director, in fact they all said the same thing... Tim Burton. He could easily bring together
Alice in Wonderland and
Sweeny Todd, but I have someone else in mind. I believe the man for the job is Guillermo del Toro! The man is responsible for movies like
Pan's Labyrinth,
Blade II (talk about Gothic) and the upcoming
The Hobbit (prequel to the Lord of the Rings). He could do an incredible job. But we'll have to wait and see. What do you think about a Gothic kid's story?
