Elton John's Jane Austen adaptation

According to Variety, Elton John’s Rocket Pictures is set to make a Jane Austen adaptation like you’ve never seen before.

Will Clark will direct ‘Pride and Predator’ which will see an alien crash landing amongst the Austen characters and causing havoc and disruption in the costume drama setting.

Elton John will be executive producer and will supervise the film’s music, his Rocket partners Steve Hamilton Shaw and David Furnish will be producing.

It is likely that this alien twist will attract more of a male audience to the period drama.

It is thought that filming will begin in London later on this year.
