What You Should Know: Early 2004 Warner Bros. Pictures bought the film rights from Miramax Films and gave screenplay adaptation and directorial duties to Chris Columbus. Columbus, who is producing the film under his 1942 Films production company, is most known for directing the first two 'Harry Potter' and 'Home Alone' movies. His directorial debut was 1991's 'Adventures in Babysitting', which just so happened to co-star future Rent castmember Anthony Rapp. The film was distributed by Revolution Studios and given a late 2005 release.
"I've been obsessed with the play for years. It's the best musical ever," [Columbus] said. "I also feel the message is really important in today's world." - Chicago Sun-Times, 5/28/04
