Spielberg to direct “Harvey” remake
Steven Spielberg is to direct a remake of 1950 James Stewart classic "Harvey"-- the tale of a man who claims his best friend is a giant invisible rabbit.
Casting for the film, a co-production between 20th Century Fox and Spielberg's DreamWorks Studios, has already begun.
The original film was based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway play of the same name by Mary Chase.
A Fox spokesman said the film could be in US cinemas by the end of 2010.
Production is due to begin early next year.
Stewart received a best actor nomination at the 1951 Oscars for his performance in the original while his co-star, Josephine Hull, won best supporting actress.
