PTA Reportedly Not Directing Robert Downey Jr.'s Live-Action "Pinocchio"

The word for now is that Paul Thomas Anderson will in fact not be directing Robert Downey Jr.'s live-action Pinocchio remake, via Wrap reporter Jeff Sneider. Since PTA's involvement as director of the picture was always indeterminate, we're going to assume he's still on board to pen the screenplay until further notice.

So, Movie 8 is, once again, anybody's guess... but isn't that the fun part?

Paul Thomas Anderson To Write Robert Downey Jr's Live-Action "Pinocchio" Film

BIG NEWS: Robert Downey Jr's long-gestating live-action Pinocchio reboot has landed a writer by the name of Paul Thomas Anderson, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 

THR also reports PTA could potentially be in line to direct the picture as well. 

Love or hate this idea, it could not be more out of left-field. As well as being a producer on the movie, Robert Downey Jr. has nabbed the role of Geppetto for himself. Beyond that, we have too many questions, so we will just wait for more details to arrive.

Stay tuned!
