Just when you thought you couldn’t stand ONE MORE Steven Spielberg war picture, along comes another one.
Thankfully, for once, it’s not a World War II movie…but rather this time, he’ll be tangling with World War I. He bought the rights to the 1982 novel Warhouse, which revolves around the special relationship shared by a boy and his horse during World War I.
Okay, I know how that sounds, but it’s not that kind of “relationship”. It’s one of those “friendly” sort of things. I look for this to be some kind of bizarre fusion of E.T. and Band of Brothers, which actually sounds kind of cool when you think about it.
After all, if you haven’t read Warhorse, who knows what that boy and his horse will do? Maybe Spielberg‘ll have them kill the Kaiser! That could be entertaining! But apparently Spielberg knew he wanted to make this movie since he read the book, so it should be something, if nothing else. No word on release dates or even start dates as of yet, so keep it here for all the latest.
