Something Wicked This Way Dumped

Just days after the Untitled Ouija Project got dumped, Universal Pictures has now passed on "Wicked Lovely" says Heat Vision.


Based on the first book in a series of young adult novels by Melissa Marr, the story centres on a teenage girl who can see the hidden faery world but confronts danger when not only do the faeries discover her ability, but also when one king decides she must be his bride.

"American Psycho" director Mary Harron was attached to direct the adaptation. Caroline Thompson ("Edward Scissorhands," "Corpse Bride") wrote the script.

While "Ouija" was nixws over the budget, 'Wicked' "doesn't suit their needs" which basically means they've lost interest.  The pic wasn't that far along in development.

Producers Vince Vaughn, Valeri Vaughn and Peter Billingsley  are now expected to seek a new home for the property.
