Robert Nelson Jacobs has been hired by Disney to re-write the script for ghostly fantasy The Banshee And Fin Magee.
He’s working on the screenplay with original writer – and Lilo & Stitch director - Dean DeBlois, who will direct the film. The plot follows a boy who is ignored by everyone around him, and pretends to be a ghost. That is, until he meets a real spook.
Jacobs also wrote The Shipping News, Chocolatand Dinosaur.
