More than 20 years later, one of those unmade Stanley Kubrick projects is getting the big-screen treatment at last.
According to a 2006 article on the project, Kubrick “commissioned [the treatment] in the late ’50s from the noir pulp novelist Jim Thompson, with whom he had worked on The Killing.”
Prior to that, Sam Rockwell and Scarlett Johansson were attached to a different Lunatic at Large project back in 2010.
“I was doing a film that was originally an idea by Stanley Kubrick,” Gilliam said at the time.
