One of the two projects Steven Spielberg is circling to direct next. The other one being Indiana Jones 5.
Spielberg has been interesting in adapting the classic star-crossed-lovers musical drama for years. He previously described it as "one of the greatest pieces of musical literature."
Per report, Tony Kushner (Munich, Lincoln), another of Spielberg’s frequent collaborators, has been working on the script.
Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins directed the original 1961 film adaptation based on the Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein, and Arthur Laurents musical.
