Another project we haven’t heard from in a while is the movie based on the popular Hasbro toy, Stretch Armstrong.

No actors are attached to star in the new attempt at making the movie yet, but the studio has found their director. It’s being reported that they’ve entered into negotiations with Breck Eisner to sit in the director’s chair, working from a script by Dean Georgaris.
