Wolfgang Petersen’s been pretty quiet since his 2005 disaster flick POSEIDON under-performed at the Box-Office, so like many of his fellow filmmakers he’s turning to the land of the rising sun for inspiration.
According to the folks of Moviehole, the veteran director is circling a live-action adaptation of the 1993 Japanese novel PAPRIKA, which has already spawned a manga and inevitable animated film in 2006. The story follows a race to stop a techno-criminal who is using stolen dream-penetrating technology for mind control.

No official confirmation has been forwarded for the project, so in the meantime Petersen is still officially attached to UPRISING about earth rebels fighting off an alien invasion. Again.
