Cue the William Tell Overture.
Justin Chadwick has signed on to helm "Ironbow: The Legend of William Tell" for Spyglass.
The William Tell legend centers on a crossbow marksman who, when he would not bow to Austrian rule, was forced to shoot an apple off his son's head in exchange for freedom. ( Read more... )
Wilhelm Tell by an American screenwriter - I'm not holding out for historical accuracy. Not that I don't think Tell's story, if he really existed, wasn't built up to much more than it was, but with regards to the period and the landscape etc. And the title - omg please! *eyeroll* Well, whatever - I never heard/saw more than casual mentions of the 2007 version so no doubt this will also pretty much go under my radar in the end. If I were more patriotic this might actually concern me. ;)
