Walter Salles ("Dark Water," "The Motorcycle Diaries") may direct the elephant orphanage pic Our Wild Life says The Hollywood Reporter. The film is based on the life and work of Daphne Sheldrick, who devoted her life to preventing elephant extinction by endeavoring to save baby elephants left orphaned by war, poaching and culling.
Jeff Stockwell wrote the script.
The project made headlines last year under its original title "Peaceable Kingdom" when "The Notebook" director Nick Cassavetes departed the project and filed a lawsuit against after he did a rewrite of the script and claimed he was booted without being paid for the work.
Peter Guber and Cathy Schulman will produce the film
