Producer Richard Zanuck Gives the Low Down on Ripley'S

Postby jimliker » Fri Dec 05, 2008 2:44 pm

While promoting his latest film YES MAN, producer Richard Zanuck spoke exclusively with the IESB about what happened with Ripley'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT, a film he was attached to along with Jim Carrey and director Tim Burton.

IESB: You were supposed to be doing Ripley's Believe it or Not with Jim [Carrey] and Tim [Burton]... that it kind of fell apart on the Tim side?

Zanuck: It fell apart on the studio side, we were ready to go and very close actually, 8 or 9 weeks away from starting and it was the studio that made that decision and it actually caught us off guard, all three of us - myself, Jim and Tim - we were rocked, we spent weeks in China selecting locations with art directors, getting permissions which is very, very tough in China to shoot. And so it was a studio decision.


IESB: Do you think it will move forward? You are still attached?

Zanuck: I'm not, no, we are no longer attached. I don't know how it was resolved with Jim whether he would be attached but definitely not Tim or myself.
