Jack Black was spotted on the set of Gulliver's Travels
filming in Los Angeles. 20th Century Fox had been secretly been
developing a live action comedy version of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's
Travels. Gulliver's Travels will be the live action debut of Rob
Letterman (Shark Tale, and Monsters vs Aliens), from a script
by Nicholas Stoller (co-writer of Fun with Dick and Jane) and Joe
Stillman (co-writer of Shrek, Shrek 2). Fox apparently has franchise
ideas in mind, because this movie is being described as an adaptation of
the first of Gulliver's travels, and not the later ones. Jack Black
will play a modern day travel writer named Lemuel Gulliver covering the
Bermuda Triangle who finds himself on the island of Lilliput, home to a
civilization of teeny tiny people. Gulliver's Travels has been adapted
several times, including a 1996 TV mini-series starring Ted Danson.
