Johnny Depp and his production company Infinitum Nihil have reached a deal with Disney to produce a modern re-imagining of The Man Who Killed Don Quixote. The latest attempt to bring Don Quixote to life on the big screen will be co-written by Jeff Morris and Steve Pink.

Steve Pink previously adapted the screenplay for Nick Hornby’s classic High Fidelity and most recently directed lacklustre comedy effort Hot Tub Time Machine. It’s unclear if he will be taking on directing duties of Don Quixote and whether or not Johnny Depp will take a starring role.

Depp may be slightly put off by the infamously disastrous time he had with Director Terry Gilliam trying to make a version of Don Quixote twelve years ago. A series of onset calamities including a flash flood meant that project was ultimately abandoned. In 2002, those misfortunes ultimately formed the bases of a documentary called Lost In La Mancha, assembled from set footage of the never to be released film.

We wish Johnny Depp the very best of luck this time…
