![]() The Phantom Of The Opera is billed as one of the most successful musicals of all time and has scooped nine Olivier and Tony Awards after debuting in the West End and Broadway in the 1980s. The latter starred Gerard Butler as the Phantom and was nominated for three Oscars. It was the inspiration for a 1925 silent movie, while in 2004, there was a lavish reimagining of Lloyd Webber’s musical by Joel Schumacher, who died this week at the age of 80. The Phantom Of The Opera has been adapted for the screen a number of times. The Foyles War and Collision writer is also working with Eleventh Hour Films to adapt his novel Magpie Murders, a whodunit about a writer who is murdered while penning a whodunit. Horowitz is fresh from executive producing a Sony-funded adaptation of his Alex Rider novels, which Deadline revealed last week is set for a second season. Gaumont UK also co-produces Sky’s Tim Roth drama Tin Star. Gaumont declined to comment on the project, but it is another sign of progress being made by UK chief Alison Jackson after the division announced last week that it has optioned historian Julie Summers’ biography on wartime Vogue editor Audrey Withers.
