Me Tarzan. You Guillermo.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Looks like Guillermo Del Toro has another project to add to the queue. This time producer Jerry Weintraub wants to team with Guillermo and Warner Bros to make a feature TARZAN. Del Toro says his interest in the property stems from the plan to go back to the original Edgar Rice Burroughs pulp novels for inspriration. He says he wants to make a flick that is edgy (and I'd imagine a little fucked up since that seems to be Guillermo's calling card), but still within the confines of a family adventure story. John Colle (MASTER AND COMMANDER and HAPPY FEET) will script. What think you?
