Having been stuck in development limbo for quite some time now, American McGee’s Alice is seeing a “turnaround” now according to Scott Faye, the film’s producer.
"The Alice project is presently in "turnaround" from Universal Studios. Jon and Erich Hoeber have written a very compelling feature film screenplay adaptation of the Alice game,” he said. “Their screenplay will certainly serve as a jumping off point as we find a new studio home for the project."
He, however, admits that there are still problems: "To be perfectly honest, the script still needs a little bit of work. The downtime since the Hoebers turned in their last draft has allowed me to establish a bit of creative objectivity. I suspect that the next draft of the screenplay will allow the project to take a substantial leap forward toward production."
Faye confirmed that Sarah Michelle Gellar is no longer attached to the project, as is Marcus Nispel who was at one point set to direct the film.
