cast: Laurence Fishburne
The highly successful book THE ALCHEMIST is now going to get the Hollywood treatment, and that dream takes one step closer with actor Laurence Fishburne showing up to buy the rights from Warner Bros.
Fishburne plans to act and direct the book to movie adaptation of Paolo Coehlo novel which went on to sell about 40 million copies worldwide and eventually translated to over fifty langauages.
So what makes the tale of young shepher boy Santiago and his pursuit to find the treasure beneath the Egyptian pyramid, so special? No one would suggest to wait for the movie to find that out. But then again, reading a book ain't your cup of tea, then this one could be on your watch out list.
They are looking at a late 2009 release for this film if things go as planned.
