Screenwriter Robert Rodat has re-imagined the English folklore character as a knight who is magically reduced in size and forced to become true hero, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The comedy adventure film, which will be called Thumb, is expected to be live action, but may feature CG for the lead character.
Lima's previous credits include Enchanted, 102 Dalmatians and Tarzan.
