ETonline.com Movies: Countdown to ‘The Da Vinci Code’:
DAN BROWN’s best-selling novel The Da Vinci Code has become a cultural phenomenon, and now Hollywood is taking on the classical murder mystery with a new movie starring TOM HANKS!Academy Award� winning producing-directing duo BRIAN GRAZER and RON HOWARD are at the reigns of the fascinating tale which reveals stunning historical secrets following the murder of a curator at the Louvre museum in Paris at the foot of the Mona Lisa.
Hanks plays Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, who teams up with the late curator’s granddaughter, Sophie Neveu (‘Amelie’ star AUDREY TAUTOU) — a gifted French cryptologist — to follow a trail of clues through Paris, London and beyond to solve the murder. Along the way, the pair discovers that famed artist Leonardo Da Vinci left a variety of clues hidden in plain sight within his paintings that may point to the location of the Holy Grail itself. But with two secret societies stopping at nothing to keep the Grail hidden, will Langdon and Neveu be able to solve the crime? Or will they become suspects themselves?
And for those purists who are worried Hollywood will mess up one great book, producer Brian Grazer assures ET that he and director Ron Howard plan to remain faithful to the tome and do it justice. “The Da Vinci Code will probably be the biggest, bestselling book ever in history and we want to do it right for everybody,” he says.
