James Lapine is currently enjoying the success of his big screen adaptation of Into the Woods, for which he wrote the screenplay, and in a recent interview with Deadline, Lapine revealed that he has another musical in mind for his next stage to screen project. When asked what musical he'd like to see as a movie, he responded: 'Well, I want to do Sunday in the Park with George, but I don't know in this day and age whether you could get it made. But Irwin Winkler came to us when it was on Broadway and said, 'I'd like to do a movie of it. I can do it for this amount of money. You can direct it,' and I went, 'Yeah.' And the studio said no.'
