Beowulf

Neil Gaiman explains the upcoming "Beowulf" film's genesis here.

Roger's a little downcast about not directing "Beowulf", though, so I've just agreed to go somewhere odd and write another film (a remake of a film I love, but wouldn't mind updating) with Roger for him to direct. (If I say "in my copious spare time", can we all agree that it should be read as if someone had actually invented the sarcasm mark as a unit of punctuation, and that "in my copious spare time" can be assumed to be inside sarcasm marks?)
