Mike Newell opens magic 'Box'
Director signs on to helm kiddie classic By ALI JAAFAR LONDON -- Brit Mike Newell will direct "The Box of Delights," based on John Masefield's classic 1930s children's novel about a boy entrusted with a magic box that allows him to travel through time. Brit shingle Brilliant Films is funding development of the feature, which Frank Cottrell Boyce ("Millions") is adapting. "Box of Delights" was adapted as a BBC TV skein in 1984 as well as an earlier radio play. "I first heard 'Box of Delights' as a radio play on the BBC when I was a boy," Newell said. "I was immediately seduced by the tingling, opening harp music and the fantastical, mysterious, magic story that followed." |
