Sony Pictures is in discussions to distribute the picture. (This version is unrelated to another remake scheduled to be released in 2005 titled Beowulf & Grendel, which is currently in post-production.)” I have no idea which version will make for a better film, but this one has Neil Gaiman and Roger Avary writing the script for it as well.
