According to Deadline, Disney is developing a movie about Charles Darwin, the late English naturalist and geologist, best known for his contributions to evolutionary theory.
According to the report, the upcoming untitled movie will be written and directed by Stephen Gaghan.
In 2009, a movie which starred Paul Bettany as Charles Darwin, told of his struggles writing On the Origin of the Species, and his grief after the death of his 10-year-old daughter, Annie.
Based on a biography by Darwin’s great-great grandson, the 2009 movie made about half a million pounds.
There have been no further details on the upcoming project.
