Variety reports that Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to distribute "Where the Wild Things Are," a film based on the classic children's book by Maurice Sendak.
Previously, Universal Pictures had planned on producing and releasing the project but when it stalled, the rights went up for grabs.
Spike Jonze ("Being John Malkovich") is expected to direct the live-action feature which will also house a lot of CGI-effects. Jonze co-wrote the screenplay with Dave Eggers. Tom Hanks, Gary Goetzman, John Carls and Sendak will be producing the project.
