Alcon Entertainment has greenlit the children’s film "Dolphin Tale."
According to Variety, Charles Martin Smith ("Air Bud") will direct from a script by Karen Janszen ("A Walk to Remember").
Smith and Jordan Roberts ("March of the Penguins") did a rewrite. The original treatment was written by Noam Dromi.
Alcon’s Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson and Richard Ingber will produce.
The film is based on the true story of Winter the dolphin and the young boy who befriends her after she loses her tail in a crab trap.
Winter will play herself in the movie, which will film in Florida at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium where Winter lives.
The story will focus on the boy inspiring those around him to help save the dolphin by creating a prosthetic part to replace the dolphin's missing tail.
Principle photography begins on September 27 with Warner Brothers distributing.
