Ron Howard Might Take a Trip Through Gaiman’s Graveyard

Disney took hold of the property and was developing it as a stop-motion film directed by Henry Selick.  But those plans were skewered when Selick and Disney split.  

Now, The Hollywood Reporter says Ron Howard is in talks to helm a live-action film.

Life of Pi‘s Gil Netter and Ben Browning will produce.

 

The novel concerns the life of Nobody Owens, a boy raised by the dead in a cemetery.  So, think The Jungle Book, except with a macabre slant in which this kid is raised by the ghosts of a murdered family.
