Reese Witherspoon is to star in upcoming live-action movie ‘Tink’ about the character Tinkerbell from Peter Pan, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The screenplay will be written by Victoria Strouse, who is also behind the upcoming Finding Nemo sequel, Finding Dorie.
After Alice in Wonderland and Cinderella have been massive box office hits, Disney is going to produce a movie about Tinkerbell that is supposed to be set alongside the original Peter Pan story. But they’ve got competition! 20th Century Fox are also producing a movie about Tinkerbell, starring Melissa McCarthy.
The movie is only going to have a mid-range budget but Academy Award winning actress Reese Witherspoon is taking the lead. The 39 year old finally received positive reviews for the movie ‘Wild’ after getting negative reactions for years after her hit movie ‘Walk The Line’.
