The English National Ballet and the FX team behind the Harry Potter flicks have suggested to make the classic ballet into a movie, but with no dancing. Casting wise, Glenn Close, Angela Lansbury, Jane Seymour, Judi Dench, Ewan McGregor and Jean Claude Van Damme (!?) have been suggested. The man behind the film is also wanting either Stephen Daldry (The Hours), Sam Mendes (American Beauty) or Nicholas Hytner (Centre Stage) as director. Very interesting. Van Damme?
