Jack Black is set to take the title role in Twentieth Century Fox's film adaptation of Gulliver's Travels.
Shark Tale helmer Rob Letterman will direct the big-budget flick, a modern-day adaptation of the Jonathan Swift classic.
According to Variety, the story concerns one Lemuel Gulliver, a free-spirited travel writer who, on an assignment to the Bermuda Triangle, suddenly finds himself a giant among men when he washes ashore on the hidden island of Lilliput, home to a population of industrious, yet tiny, people.
Nick Stoller (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) and Joe Stillman (Shrek) penned the screenplay, with production set to start next March.
