Universal to make 'Candy Land'
Universal has confirmed plans for a movie based on popular board game Candy Land.

The project is part of the company's four-feature deal with Hasbro, reports Variety.

Candy Land is a children's game, which involves players moving backwards and forwards along coloured paths via destinations, such as Candy Cane Forest and Gum Drop Mountain, in an attempt to reach the finish line. Characters in the game include Gloppy the Chocolate Monster, Queen Frostine, Gramma Nutt and Mr Mint.

Enchanted's Kevin Lima will direct, while Etan Cohen is scripting.
