Tim Burton is eying Robert Downey Jr. ("Sherlock Holmes") for proposed Warner Bros. live-action adaptation of "Pinocchio."
According to Heat Vision, Burton wants Downey to play Pinocchio's father Geppetto, around whom this particular adaptation will revolve.
Based on a script from Bryan Fuller ("Pushing Daisies"), the movie would follow Geppetto as he sets out to find his missing marionette.
While neither the director or actor have deals with Warner Bros. for the project, Heat Vision quotes various souces saying Burton is "keen" to direct the film and Downey has "serious interest" in both the the film and working with Burton.
