‘Meet Bill’ director, Bernie Goldmann, has stated that numerous high-status names have already enunciated an interest in the film. Goldmann will also be producing. However, he has declined to release particulars. He has declared to Variety.com that capacity and directors of the most excellent level have already issued a rejoinder to the fresh and edgier/jumpier notion and to the script.

He has divulged that the remake will hang on to some of the aspects of the dearly loved Brothers Grimm tale. However, it definitely will not be the mother’s Snow White.
