Movie news

As a postscript to my previous post, Columbia Pictures just announced that it is moving forward with a film version of Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol. The book will be adapted by Steven Knight, and Brian Grazer and John Calley will produce. No word yet on whether Tom Hanks will return as Robert Langdon or Ron Howard will return to direct. Hanks and Howard were both involved in the previous two adaptations of Dan Brown's Robert Langdon books.
