Today's unsubstantiated rumor...

... is that Michel Gondry is set to direct Jack Black in Dan Clowes's adaption of Rudy Rucker's Master of Space and Time.

This would of course be incredibly cool if it were true. I wonder if it is? There's a blurb in Variety from the summer of 2004 and a brief mention in Boing Boing, which I suppose is marginally credible...
