According to The Hollywood Reporter, Danny Glover is in final negotiations to star in Michel Gondry's BE KIND, REWIND for New Line Cinema.
Gondry wrote and will direct the story about a man (Jack Black) who becomes magnetized at a local power plant. He accidentally erases all the videotapes at the local video store owned by Glover's character. Instead of telling the stubborn, old-fashioned store owner what happened, Black and his friend decide to re-create the films using the townspeople as actors.
