Francis Ford Coppola will take the director's chair on Youth Without Youth, says Variety.

Based on the novella by Romanian author Mircea Eliade, it will tell the story of a professor whose life changes after an incident in the years before World War II. As a fugitive he is pursued across Romania, India, Malta and Switzerland.
The movie will star Tim Roth, Alexandra Maria Lara, Bruno Ganz and Marcel Iures
