Anne Hathaway is reportedly gearing up to star in the upcoming remake of The Witches, based on the novel by Roald Dahl.
According to Variety, Hathaway has signed on to the project, which will be directed by Oscar-winning director Robert Zemeckis. Hathaway will star as the Grand High Witch in the new adaptation.
Variety reports that the new version of The Witches will hew closer to the source material than the 1990 film adaptation. Alfonso Cuarón and Guillermo del Toro are set to produce.
The previous movie version of The Witches starred Anjelica Huston in the role of the Grand High Witch and was directed by the late Nicolas Roeg. While the film fared poorly at the box office, it has become something of a cult classic.
