Geppetto?

Tim Burton is in talks to direct a live-action version of the Pinocchio story
– and he wants Robert Downey Jr. to be his Geppetto.

The actor is reportedly being courted for the part of the puppet-maker in the movie, which would concentrate more on his search for his lost puppet son than on the boy’s travails.

Neither Burton nor Downey has signed on yet, but both are said to be sweet on the project and on working with each other.
