Hailee Steinfeld to star in SLEEPING BEAUTY based on new spec script

Deadline reports that Hailee Steinfeld is attached to star in Sleeping Beauty. The story is based on a spec script being sent to studios today takes a much different look at the classic fairy tale character. The script written by Lindsay Devlin centers on the "title character as she is asleep, trying to escape her dream world." With Steinfeld attached, studios will likely pick up the project fairly quickly.

This new project is different from the Sleeping Beauty project we reported about earlier at Disney. That project is being written by Alice in Wonderland screenwriter Linda Woolverton.

Steinfeld is also attached to Forgotten for Paramount Pictures. We reported on that project last month, but it isn't known which project will begin filming first.
