Robert Zemeckis circles "Yellow Submarine" remake

By Borys Kit

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Robert Zemeckis is in negotiations to direct a remake of the 1968 animated Beatles feature "Yellow Submarine" for the Walt Disney Studios.

Disney had no comment on the deal. Still being sorted out is the acquisition of rights to the film's music, which includes the title track as well as "Eleanor Rigby," "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," "When I'm Sixty-Four" and "With a Little Help From My Friends."

Like all Zemeckis' animated productions -- among them "The Polar Express" and "Beowulf" -- "Submarine" would be done in performance capture and would be a digital 3D endeavor.

3. Zombie Lennon should rise up and devour Zemeckis
And then Zombie Zemeckis should hunt down and destroy all copies of The Polar Express and Beowulf.
