Taika Waititi will gather the bandits in time
Apple has not yet decided on the timing of the launch of its own streaming platform, but at the same time it continues to invite eminent film makers to work on TV series intended for Apple's online service. Taiku Waititi can now be added to the list, which has already included Damien Chazelle, Francis Lawrence, Reese Witherspoon and many others.The director of "Ragnarok" and "The Real Ghouls" agreed to lead the shooting and co-write the series, based on the fantasy Terry Gilliam "Bandits in Time". Waititi will also share the functions of executive producer of the project with Gilliam and Dan Halstead ("The Virgin Suicides"). The original picture from 1981 tells the story of 11-year-old Kevin, who escapes from his parents along with a group of dwarfs traveling through different eras. With the help of a card stolen from the Supreme Being, they make their way through space and time, get acquainted with Napoleon, Agamemnon and Robin Hood, but the Universal Spirit of Evil is also hunting for this card ...  "Bandits in Time" is a great opportunity for Taiki Waititi to shoot another unique project of its kind. The filmmaker is famous for his unusual sense of humor, and on the set of the show for Apple it will definitely come in handy. Over the past year, Waititi has also become adept at working on television projects: he turned "The Real Ghouls" into a TV series for FX and visited the planet Mandalore.
