Sony Pictures Entertainment has set Sam Raimi to direct THE WEE FREE MEN. Pamela Pettler will write the script, which will be based on Terry Pratchett's bestselling young-adult novel.
The story centers on a 9-year-old farm girl who heads off to a parallel world to retrieve a brother who has been grabbed by a nasty fairy queen. She battles the monsters of Fairyland with the help of 6-inch-tall blue-faced rowdies who wear kilts, speak in thick Scottish brogues, steal sheep and drink heavily.
Sam Raimi, Josh Donen, and Created By's Vince Gerardis & Ralph Vicinanza will produce.
