Warner Brothers has hired Bryan Fuller to script and Dan Jinks to produce a live-action adaptation of Pinocchio.
Jinks told Daily Variety that he was inspired by Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” to begin work on a new version of “Pinocchio.” “I think we’ve found a fresh approach that’s going to be very entertaining,” he added.
Jinks worked with Fuller on the ABC dramedy Pushing Daisies, which Fuller created.
