Kellan Lutz is to star as Tarzan in a new motion-capture movie.
The Twilight Saga actor has signed up to play the titular character in a new 3-D production, and Resident Evil actress Spencer Locke is in talks to take up the role of heroine Jane, Deadline reports. Reinhard Klooss and Holger Tappe will direct the fully animated CGI motion picture and Reinhard is also producing the project with Robert Kulzer as well as penning the script alongside Yoni Brenner and Jessica Postigo.
The movie will be inspired from the classic Edgar Rice Burroughs story about the jungle hero, whose parents will be billionaire adventurers who are killed in an airplane crash in the new Tarzan motion picture instead of being marooned with their child. The production - which is being developed by Constantin Film - will also see Tarzan go up against the Chief Executive of Greystoke Energies after he takes over the company from the jungle star's deceased parents.
