Heat Vision Blog reports the news that McQuarrie will write a new draft of Jack the Giant Killer, after previous drafts were written by the likes of Mark Bomback (Live Free of Die Hard) and Darren Lemke (Shrek Forever After).

The tale is set in motion when a princess is kidnapped, threatening a long-standing peace between men and giants. A young farmer is given an opportunity to lead a dangerous expedition to the giants’ kingdom in hope of rescuing her.
Singer is set to begin casting soon and will shoot the movie this summer in England. The film is being produced by Neil Moritz through his company, Original Film, along with David Dobkin. The project is a partnership between New Line and Legendary Pictures
.
Something worth noting is that McQuarrie is the same guy who is writing Wolverine 2, a film people many thought Singer might direct (though Singer’s schedule is a bit too full right now). Singer will instead produce the X-Men prequel film X-Men: First Class (he was once attached to direct but dropped out to do Giant Killer) and with McQuarrie writing Wolverine 2, there’s a chance Singer could produce that, too.
