Crowe And Smith Tell A Winter's Tale

Russell Crowe is locked while Will Smith is said to be attached to star in Akiva Goldsman's directorial debut "Winter's Tale" reports Vulture.



An adaptation of the 1983 Mark Helprin novel of the same name, follows Peter Lake, an orphaned mechanic who tries to rob a palatial West Side mansion. There he meets a young dying girl who he becomes determined to save. A flying white horse also figures into the story which is set in both 19th Century and contemporary Manhattan.

Crowe will play a gangster boss with Smith appearing as a judge. Both men have worked with Goldsman on films before.

Production kicks off later this year.
