Seven Pounds Director Moving to Adaline
Gabriele Muccino (SEVEN POUNDS) is in negotiations to take the helm of Lakeshore and Sidney Kimmel Ent.'s supernatural romance ADALINE, reports Variety. J. Mills Goodloe, Salvador Paskowitz and Allison Burnett penned the script, which follows a woman who hasn't aged in over a century that finds love in the 21st century.
Previously, HITCH helmer Andy Tennant was set to direct with Katherine Heigl in the lead, before the actress backed off the project to spend more time with her new child.
Lakeshore's Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi, Anonymous Content's Steve Golin and Alix Madigan, and Sidney Kimmel are the producers.
Summit has the U.S. right with Lakeshore International and Sierra/Affinity handling global rights.
