Information by Baz the Great!

Baz Luhrmann's production of Alexander the Great is currently on hold. It seems that the film has indeed been put on the backburner - for now.  However, there is a possibility that this film could still be made in a few years time. This will allow time for the reaction to Oliver Stone's 2004 version of Alexander to fade, and give Luhrmann the opportunity to start anew. To read my personal review of Stone's Alexander, click here.

On 23 November 2006 in an interview with the Today show, Luhrmann confirmed that he does still want to make his version of Alexander the Great. He stated quite firmly, "My dream is that one day I will make that film."

I followed the pre-production of Luhrmann's Alexander the Great during 2002 and 2003, so feel free to look around this section at past information regarding this possible future production.
