BILLY ELLIOT HEADING BACK TO THE BIG SCREEN?

SIR ELTON JOHN is in talks to take BILLY ELLIOT back to the big screen.
John wrote the music for the theatre adaptation of the 2000 movie, which was written by Lee Hall and directed by Stephen Daldry.
Now the trio want to take the story about a young ballet dancer full circle by re-making the movie as a musical.
Speaking after the Broadway adaptation of Billy Elliot The Musical scooped ten Tony Awards on Sunday (07Jun09), Hall revealed, "We've been talking about making the musical back into a movie - but we'd have to think long and hard how to do it."
