Jackson rumour quashed

New Zealand film director Peter Jackson will not direct a remake of the 1954 film The Dam Busters, says a spokesman.

Jackson is working on his next movie The Lovely Bones, said Matt Dravitzki. He rejected any suggestion Jackson would be directing a $293 million remake of The Dam Busters, as reported by Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper.

Filming of The Lovely Bones will start early next year.
