Not content to rape our memories of old movies and TV shows, Universal is now looking at Board Games for inspiration on their next set of film choices.
Universal Pictures wants to make “Candy Land.”
Etan Cohen will write and Kevin Lima will direct a live-action feature based on the enduring Hasbro board game.
Lima most recently directed the Amy Adams starrer “Enchanted” after helming the animated features “Tarzan” and “102 Dalmatians.” Cohen’s recent script work includes “Tropic Thunder” and “Madagascar 2,” and he most recently rewrote “The Fiance,” the Burr Steers-directed romantic comedy that will star Anne Hathaway.
