Peter Webber (“Girl with a Pearl Earring,” “Hannibal Rising”) has signed on to direct a film adaptation of Daniel Mason’s acclaimed historical novel “The Piano Tuner”. Pre-production begins later this year.
Set in 1886 at the height of the British Empire, it follows a piano tuner who receives a strange request by the British War Office to deliver a rare grand piano to a legendary British Officer in the remote jungles of northeast Burma.
Gopi Sait, Sunaman Sood, Daria Jovicic and Rashaana Shah will produce.
