Captain Nemo 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea , a $150-million epic, directed by McG, aimed at bringing to the screen a favorite Disneyland adventure ride, has sunk. The Los Angeles Times and Daily Variety reported that Rich Ross, who has been shaking things up as Disney studios' new movie chief, made the call to shut down the project after it was approved by his predecessor, Dick Cook. The company had reportedly already spent about $10 million on preproduction. But the Times said that Ross had "creative concerns" about the current script and now plans to redevelop the entire project.
