It looks like Disney's live-action remake of
Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs is zeroing in on a director, as
Variety reports that Marc Webb (
The Amazing Spider-Man movies,
Gifted) is in negotiations to helm the project.
The deal has not been finalized just yet, but Webb is said to be the studio's top choice.
The Girl on the Train screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson is currently working on the script, which will "expand upon the story and music from the 1938 animated classic."
La La Land duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul will write new songs for the movie.
There have been several different adaptations of the Brothers Grimm fairytale over the years, the most recent being 2012's
Snow White and The Huntsman starring Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart.
This latest take on doesn't have a release date yet.
