Only months after his GLADIATOR won the Academy Award for best picture, director Ridley Scott is hitting the history books again with a movie about ALEXANDER THE GREAT. Academy Award winner Ted Tally, fresh off RED DRAGON duty, is currently adapting a trilogy of novels about the Greek dictator for producer Dino De Laurentiis (HANNIBAL). Anthony Hopkins, according to the Hollywood Reporter, is already in talks to play Alexander, even though Tally's script from Italian author Valerio Manfredi's trilogy of books has not yet been finished.
