The project — at an early stage of development — is likely to be co-produced by Hungarian director Bela Tarr, whose “Man From London” was in competition here last year.
“Although there is no script yet, this is one of two projects for which Kornel has specific plans,” said Viktoria Petranyi, producer of “Delta.”
The Da Vinci project —based on the true story of charges of homosexual activity laid against the Renaissance artist — is in development alongside another project, based on the story of Frankenstein that would probably be co-produced with “Delta” co-producer Phillipe Bober of French firm the Coproduction Office, Petranyi added.
Both projects would seek initial funding from Hungarian state sources and were being prepped for 2009 or 2010 production schedules.
“The key thing is that we are keen to get working fast on new projects and to continue working with our established co-production partners,” Petranyi said.
