Rumors about a film based on the best-seller persisted in the years that followed, with Stephen Daldry at one point attached to the title and actors including Tobey Maguire, Jamie Bell, Natalie Portman, Andrew Garfield, Ryan Gosling, Ben Whishaw and Jason Schwartzman all rumored to be in the mix. By late 2004, however, Chabon declared the film dead. In the years that followed, six drafts of the script were completed and Sydney Pollack was attached to direct the feature, with Jude Law in talks to play Kavalier. The Showtime miniseries take arrives decades after Chabon worked with producer Scott Rudin to adapt the beloved title for the big screen with Paramount Pictures. Star Trek franchise captain Alex Kurtzman will exec produce Kavalier and Clay alongside fellow Picard exec producer Akiva Goldsman.
