Kung Fu Panda co-director John Stevenson will helm The Minotaur Takes a Cigarette Break according to The Hollywood Reporter.Mike Jones adapted Steven Sherrill's 2000 novel about the mythological creature - half-man, half-bull - who survived Theseus' attack in the labyrinth and walks among us today.
I know, I know, it's a tale that has been done a thousand times. Mythological beastie lives through the ages, ends up becoming a short-order cook in a Midwestern diner not far from his trailer-park home who falls for an epileptic waitress named Kelly.
Films such as The Griffin Buys Some Cheese, The Kraken Changes His Trunks, The Centaur Cooks An Egg, and the classic Cyclops Checks His Address Book, all covered the same ground.
Bad jokes aside, this does sound pretty darn weird but cool and I may well have a read of the book.
The film will be a live-action love story with CG elements.
