Jack the Giant Killer Movie

Jack the Giant Killer FilmDirector Bryan Singer will helm a new movie adaptation of the popular folk tale Jack the Giant Killer for Warner Bros. For those who don't know, Jack the Giant Killer is a British fairy tale about a plucky Cornish lad who slays a number of giants during King Arthur's reign. The Jack The Giant Killer movie will be a dark retelling of "Jack and the Beanstalk". There's no official release date yet.

A shirt from Legendary Pictures, believed to be for Jack the Giant Killer, was spotted during the last Comic Con, the tower looks definitely evil:
