Aug. 3rd, 2007 04:39 pmGaiman is now turning his attentions to directing a movie version of the Sandman offshoot, "Death: The High Cost of Living." The movie, has been in the works since 1996, but Gaiman has a new ally in director Guillermo del Toro, who signed on as executive producer and gave Gaiman a master class during the making of "Hellboy 2."
Now ensconced at Picturehouse, the "Death" movie seems to be moving closer to reality. But Gaiman has been here before. "There's an old country saying where I come from," he says. " 'I've lived near the woods too long to be frightened by an owl.' I've seen the green light blinking too many times on 'Death.' "
Still, he is optimistic. "It looks like it will probably get made earlyish next year in the U.K.," he says. "Unless it doesn't."
