Tim Burton Taking a Break from Terrible Reboots to Make a Biopic
 |
In what I would consider the best career move he could possibly make as a filmmaker, Burton is reteaming with Ed Wood writers Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski for Big Eyes, a biopic of artists Margaret and Walter Keane, whose artwork (represented above) appeals to Burton for pretty obvious reasons. Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz – NOT Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter!!!! – will star.
Throw in a non-Elfman score and we’re cookin’.
