According to the media, David Fincher wants three-time film partner Brad Pitt to play Ned Land in his remake of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Currently, Fincher is waiting for Disney to give his project the green light, as the copyright to the old property belongs to the media giant. Sources are reporting, however, that Disney is looking into casting and trying to figure out what Fincher’s project could mean for them in terms of box office success.
