New Line Cinema, who learned that magic meant box office numbers with the Lord of the Rings trilogy, is ready to give magic another go. But instead of elves and wizards New Line has conjured up a story that will take us to the heart of Las Vegas.
Double down!
Burt Dickenson: The Most Powerful Magician on Planet Earth
I still don't know about the lengthy title, but New Line Cinema has picked up the comedy pitched by scribe Chad Kultgen.
According to Variety, New Line Cinema is setting Burt Dickenson: The Most Powerful Magician on Planet Earth up with producers Chris Bender, JC Spink and Tyler Mitchell.
The story will take place in the world of rival Las Vegas magicians in which one member of a highly successful two-man team dies in a risky stunt. The surviving team member must then find a way to rediscover his love for magic.
Having just arrived back from Las Vegas this Sunday, I definitely suggest those visiting the city of sin in the upcoming months to hit up the club Tao located in the Venitian. With a VIP table there were guests such as Jay-Z and Paris Hilton. Now Paris won't stop calling me. Welll, not exactly, but it was still pretty insane.
