Jason Reitman Organised A Celeb-Filled Princess Bride Homemade Reboot
The Princess Bride? Inconceivable! Still, writer/director Jason Reitman appears unafraid, gathering a staggering number of stars to shoot scenes from the classic fantasy film in their backyards and beyond.Expanding on the idea of the live script reads he's hosted in the past, Reitman cooked up the concept when the Coronavirus lock down kicked in across many US States and, after getting the permission of Norman Lear, who controls the rights to The Princess Bride; the estate of William Goldman, who wrote the novel that inspired it along with the screenplay; and musician and composer Mark Knopfler, whose score is recreated in the new footage.
