thanks for that!

so what does everyone think about him playing Tarzan?

Quote:

Christoph Waltz is in talks to join the cast of Warner Bros.’ “Tarzan” reboot starring Alexander Skarsgard.

It is unclear how the new version will be interpreted, but sources say Waltz would be a military figure that crosses paths with the King of the Jungle.

A bigscreen adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ series of novels, “Tarzan” is being produced by Jerry Weintraub and Alan Riche with Mike Richardson and Yates exec producing. Numerous scribes worked on the script including John August, Marianne Wibberley and, most recently, Adam Cozad.

Jesse Ehrman will oversee for Warner Bros.

The studio is still awaiting a greenlight, which some say may come in November with a summer start date. Still, Warners wants to begin packaging a cast to present to the greenlight committee. Yates is also taking meetings with actresses to would play Jane.

Sources say “Focus” star Margot Robbie and Emma Stone (UPDATE: sources close to Stone have since said the actress recently passed on the part) are among the actresses being considered but there are no contract talks on that front.

Well he has the body for it

I hope it does get the greenlight. I think it sounds like an interesting movie and I'd love to see him play opposite Christoph.

He's next project, which starts filming this month, is The Giver. Soooo excited he'll be in a movie with Meryl Streep and Jeff Bridges!

In a seemingly perfect community, without war, pain, suffering, differences or choice, a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man about the true pain and pleasure of the "real" world.
