    <p>Slashfilm.com reports Disney's remake of&nbsp;20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is on hold. The film, directed by David Fincher, is having trouble finding an actor to play the lead, Ned Land (played by Kirk Douglas in the 1954 classic), with Brad Pitt having turned it down and things not working out with Channing Tatum. As a result of the delays, the earliest the film could be released is likely 2015. Who do you think would be a good chocie?</p>

    Have they signed a Nemo, or is that un-cast as well? I could see a bearded George Clooney doing well as Nemo (or, better, Ben Kingsley) but Ned Land?

    Jeremy Renner?

    I thought this was supposed to be a family film?
