Jersey Boys put into turnaround at Warner Bros.
We reported in June that Jon Favreau is directing this musical from a screenplay by John Logan (Skyfall), based on the Broadway play by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. The story follows Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, and their rise to fame throughout the 1960s.
Producers Graham King and Tim Headington previously developed the project at Sony, but took it to Warner Bros. after signing an exclusive first-look deal. Production was initially slated to begin in January for a Christmas 2013 release date.
Jersey Boys comes to theaters in 2014.

I can't believe Jon Favreau abandoned Iron Man 3 to pursue the Magic Kingdom and Jersey Boys...and now both films have been put on hold. Damn Favreau. Well at least Marvel Studios got Shane Black for Iron Man 3. I guess Favreau will go to directing TV shows or something, I bet he regrets leaving the Iron Man series right about now.
