"Clifford" Gets His Own BIG Movie

David Bowers ("Flushed Away," "Astro Boy") is in talks to direct the "Clifford the Big Red Dog" movie says The Wrap.

Based on the classic children's book series that author Norman Bridwell created in 1963, the story follows a child named Emily Elizabeth and her very large red dog .

The project will be a live action film with the dog being the only CG animated character.

Matt Lopez is writing the script.
