Guillermo Del-Toro is a busy, busy man. Luckily, he has taken time to develop and produce a stop-motion Pinocchio for Universal pictures, Deadline reports. The project is based on the 2002 book by Gris Grimly, which aimed for an older audience. Del Toro knows his craft by now (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy and The Devil's Backbone) and I can't see how this could possibly be bad.
If that weren't enough to stoke your fires Nick Cave has signed on to be the musical consultant and the puppets and 3D will be done by the UK company McKinnon and Saunders who also did the puppets for Fantastic Mr. Fox, and Corpse Bride.
