The Magician’s Elephant
Fox is to turn children’s book The Magician’s Elephant into a Princess Bride-style fantasy movie, according to Variety . The book, about a boy who’s told that an elephant will lead the way to his missing sister, is by Kate DiCamillo, who also rote the the novels that inspired the movies The Tale Of Despereaux and Because Of Winn Dixie. Martin (The Go-Getter) Hynes, who's writing the script, reckons, “Fox wanted to make a fable which could both be a classic but not take itself too seriously. The film we've referenced in terms of tone is The Princess Bride; something that kids will enjoy, but adults will love on other levels." In Britain we used to call those Carry On movies.
