Linklater Swims to Mr. Limpet?

Richard Linklater (WAKING LIFE) is Warner Bros.' top choice to helm the remake of THE INCREDIBLE MR. LIMPET, reports 24 Frames.

Richard Linklater (WAKING LIFE) is Warner Bros.' top choice to helm the remake of THE INCREDIBLE MR. LIMPET, reports 24 Frames. The new film would be a live-action/animation hybrid like the 1964 original, which starred Don Knotts. However, the WWII setting will be contemporized, but it is unknown at this point what underwater threat the man-turned-fish will encounter. The project has been in the works for nearly a decade. Most recently Kevin Lima (ENCHANTED) was set to direct with Zach Galifianakis taking the title character.
