This week's Benedict Cumberbatch casting story had centred on whether he would or wouldn't be appearing in the new Star Wars movie, that JJ Abrams is directing. The latest on that is that his representative has denied his involvement.
News now reaches us though of another project that he's potentially signing up for. It's an adaptation of David Grann's book The Lost City Of Z, a non-fiction title that was published back in 2009.
It follows a man called Fawcett - the role that Cumberbatch is being linked with - who headed into the Amazon back in 1925 on the hunt for an ancient civilization. Having clearly not watched the animated classic The Mysterious Cities Of Gold (it was 1925, in his defense), Fawcett went on the hunt for the city of El Dorado, capturing the imagination of many across the world has he did.
The movie take is being written and directed by James Gray (who made the underappreciated The Yards, amongst others), and we'll keep you posted as we hear more on it. As it stands, Cumberbatch is reportedly in talks, and hasn't signed up yet. But there's a sporting chance that he will.
There's no start date that we know of for it yet.
