According to Screen Daily, Gosford Park director Robert Altman is returning to the UK to film The Tortoise and the Hare, due to shoot in London next year from a screenplay by Andrew Davies.
Emma Thompson is in talks to board the film, likely to be financed by Picturehouse. The project is being produced by Alan Ladd Jr.
"It's a relationship movie," Ladd commented. "There are four major parts and a couple of other very good parts, but it is not a big ensemble like 'Gosford Park'."
