Darren Aronofsky is to direct a feature film about Old Testament figure Noah, Hollywood's Paramount Pictures and New Regency Productions announced.
Academy Award-nominated screenwriter John Logan is to re-write the movie's script, which was originally penned by Aronofsky and Ari Handel. Aronofsky and Scott Franklin will produce the film.
"Since I was a kid, I have been moved and inspired by the story of Noah and his family's journey. The imaginations of countless generations have sparked to this epic story of faith. It's my hope that I can present a window into Noah's passion and perseverance for the silver screen," Aronofsky said in a statement Monday.
Aronofsky's films include "Black Swan," "The Wrestler," "The Fountain" and "Requiem for a Dream."
