“Enchanted” director Kevin Lima will [somehow] turn the board game “Candy Land” into a feature film.
Universal has set Etan Coen to write a film based on the enduring Hasbro board game. The project is the first film to emerge from the deal U made last February with Hasbro, whose properties are the basis for the summer tentpole films “G.I.
