Well, according to IMDB, The Giver seems to have a tentative 2009
release date. However, given the fact that there are no actors signed
on for the project yet, you may be waiting longer still.

Another one which I'm not sure got mentioned is The Tale of Despereaux.
It's in post-production, and scheduled to be released in December of
this year. The movie is literally an ALL-STAR cast, and I can't wait!

I thought The Giver was going to be a movie but it seems like it is
taking forever. Know anything about that one?
