Del Toro to Direct Maleficent coming up on Clevver Movies!
Hey there, Im Tatiana Diana for clevver movies with the latest on Maleficent.
We've recently reported the exit of Tim Burton as director for Maleficent, and the director chair has still not been filled. Some are speculating that Guillermo de Toro may just fit the bill. Del Toro known for fantasty flicks like Pans Labyrinth recently spoke about possibly directing the sleeping beauty tale.
Del Toro expressed being a huge fan by saying, "It's one of my three favorite Disney films. I would love to." He then speaks realistically by stating, "But I don't want to put too many hopes on it. They're probably on a fast track and I cannot take any more projects on a fast track." We know Del Toro fans have their fingers crossed, but in the meantime, they can look forward to "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" which will release August 26th.
Last week, there was also talk of David O Russel, known for "The Fighter" to direct the flick. Still no confirmation on WHO will direct, but one thing we can say for sure is, we cant wait to see Angelina Jolie play the wicked Fairy God Mother!
