City of Ember

There was a small note in a recent issue of Entertainment Weekly that Tom Hanks is producing an adaptation of City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. IMDB says it is supposed to come out in October 2008, but with the writers' strike that might change. Bill Murray and Tim Robbins have roles. Saoirse Ronan, who is in Atonement, will play Lina.
