Peter Jackson to film Dam Busters
The Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson is to remake classic British war film The Dam Busters.
The project is due to start filming next year, with a budget of $30-40m.
Jackson will produce the movie, with King Kong animator Christian Rivers in the director's chair.
Jackson said it would be "as authentic as possible and as close to the spirit of the original as possible".
The 1954 film told the true story of how Britain developed bouncing bombs to destroy German dams in World War II.
