Before we go any further: Neal H. Moritz (The Fast and the Furious) will not be applying the powerful cinematic qualities of Andrei Tarkovsky‘s Stalker to the story of Sleeping Beauty. Instead, THR informs us the producer has thrown his considerable weight behind a modern-day spin on this classic fairy tale — one with a creepy and (technically) illegal twist!
In this incarnation, a young charmer awakens a beautiful, dormant woman who turns out to be “a pesky stalker [...] that he can’t get rid of” (THR’s above-the-line promise that this would be “a stalker take” had me thinking much more ominous things. Alas.) No title is set, but, on the screenwriting side of things, Moritz‘s Original Film have hired the relatively unknown and, from what I can gather, mostly inexperienced duo of Mike Gagerman and Andrew Waller– unless the latter’s directing credit on American Pie Presents Beta House...
