TheMovieBox reports that E! News Daily interviewed Naomi Watts and director Peter Jackson at the BAFTA/LA luncheon on Saturday, and Watts confirmed she is set to star in Universal's King Kong.
"I will sit in the hand of King Kong," she said laughing and referring to the Ann Darrow role. She also mentioned that she'll start filming in August for a December 14, 2005 release.
Jackson added that he wants "to approach King Kong as a drama, not as a fantasy, not as anything other than a straight drama and explore what would really happen in that situation and I think would be interesting."
