Rumors have spred that there's been something confirmed about the Artemis Fowl movie
An article appeared in The Sunday Times today saying that Irish director Jim Sheridan is "writing the screenplay for the first movie adaptation with Colfer, with a view to directing the multi-million-euro project." Jim Sheridan said back in 2003 that he'd been approached about the movie but denied that he would be the director. His main concern three years ago was whether it would be filmed in Ireland. Although the new article in The Times says that no decisions about location have been made, it does confirm that scouts have been out and about in Ireland.
The Time article also notes that nobody has yet been cast in the film... so all of those rumours are definitely just rumours! For the full story with all of the information about the film.
Thanks to Artemis Fowl Confidential and Artemis Fowl FanGathering, we know that an interview has been posted on Unison.ie with young Irish actor Aidan Mitchell. In this interview he expresses an interest in the role of Artemis Fowl:
Aidan said he would love to work with Steven Spielberg, but for now he is hoping to clinch a role in the movie, 'Artemis Fowl'.
The film, which is based on the books by ex-schoolteacher, Eoin Colfer, is currently in pre-production.
He said he had to work hard on "getting rid" of his Irish accent for the American roles but he would be more than happy to bring it back for a role in an Irish movie.
