Bryan Singer has found the princess for his upcoming retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk.
Actress Eleanor Tomlinson has signed on to play the female lead in “Jack the Giant Killer.”
Tomlinson won the job over Adelaide Kane, an Australian actress who starred in “Power Rangers RPM.”
The movie is a retelling of the classic fairy tale centering on a farm boy who leads an expedition to free a princess taken hostage by a giant, a situation which threatens the uneasy peace between humans and giants.
Nicholas Hoult stars as the peasant while Stanley Tucci is playing the villain, an advisor to the king with designs on usurping power.
