I’m pleased to finally announce that I have closed a deal to direct a feature film for 20th Century Fox. “ANDREW HENRY’S MEADOW” is a kid-centered fantasy adventure, executive produced by Zach Braff and written by his brother, Adam Braff. The film is also being produced by John Davis and Derek Dauchy for Davis Entertainment (“I Robot,” “Alien Vs. Predator,” “Eragon”).<\/p>\n

Based on the beloved children’s book, this story from the brothers Braff has all the movie ingredients that I love: comedy, action, gadgets, and big effects. It will all be set in a highly-stylized world, with art direction similar to movies like “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” “Time Bandits” and “Brazil.” <\/p>\n

Another exciting aspect of this project is that it leaps me into live action films, something I’ve been wanting to do very badly. And the scope of the movie will be huge. It’s going to be a real crash-course in studio moviemaking for me, and I couldn’t be more tingly all over about it.<\/p>\n

Now THIS BLOG has a real purpose! You can always check back here for production updates, right from the director’s mouth… or keyboard. This is a long process, and we still have to get that all-important production green light from Fox. But at least now my deal is in place (and I can TALK about it). Next, the Braffs and I will proceed to get the script ready. Sorry to break it to you guys, but there will be NO talking squirrels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
