Moviehole has reported that Andrew Davis is in talks to replace Terry Gilliam on the eternally in trouble production of The Man Who Killed Don Quixote. The troubled production was even the focus of a recent documentary (Lost In Lamancha).

Davis, the Oscar nomated director of The Fugitive, sounds like he may be tempting fate when he utters the following:

“I’m thinking of doing Don Quixote. Terry Gilliam tried to do it. I talked to someone who’s involved in it, and he still wants to do it… its very complicated. But I’m in talks”, says Davis. “...I’ve got to do it right. If I got to make it, I’d like to make it with someone like Jon Voight you know, or someone like John Leguizamo – who probably aren’t big enough stars to get it greenlit. If Johnny Depp said he wanted to do it again right now, we’d get the money. We’ll see...”
