Emma Stone’s name has been attached to a live-action Cruella De Vil movie for some time, once again bringing the Dalmatian hating tycoon to life on the big screen.
He was due to direct the stage adaptation of Disney’s Frozen, which is on its way to Broadway.
Now, Deadline reports that the origin story of Cruella De Vil is courting Mozart In The Jungle filmmaker Alex Timbers for the directing gig, with the intention of starting production early in 2017.
But they parted ways, despite the fact that Timbers is a two-time Tony Award nominee.
