Baz Luhrmann to direct Kung Fu the movie?

Baz Luhrmann is in talks to direct a feature film adaptation of ’70s series “Kung Fu”, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Legendary and Universal Pictures are teaming on the movie, which will assumingly again follow the journeys of monk Caine as he travels across America in search of his father.

Actor Bill Paxton had previously been attached to direct a film based on the property.

Aussie Luhrmann’s last film was the ambitious spectacular-spectacular “The Great Gatsby”.
