Chuck Russell is working on a new movie version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame and it appears he's already chosen his Quasimodo.
Max Ryan is set to play the deformed bellringer after co-writing the screenplay for The Hunchback with Julio Ponce Palmieri (via THR).
A look at the IMDb page for the film indicates the hunchback has been renamed Pierre and Steven Berkoff is also linked to the production.
Filming is set to start on the movie in Serbia next year, with Russell producing alongside Mike Weber as executive producer and Eustace Montgomery Hicks as co-producer.
This would be the latest in a long line of adaptions of Victor Hugo's 1831 novel Notre Dame de Paris.
There's the singalong 1997 Disney version, the well known 1939 Charles Loughton adaptation and even a little known 90s TV movie starring Salma Hayek and Mandy Patinkin.
No release date has yet been set for The Hunchback.
