TheWrap reports that Will Smith may be heading under the big top with Tim Burton and Disney. The ?Bad Boys for Life? star is in early discussions to join the studio?s live-action adaptation of their animated classic ?Dumbo,? Burton is on board to direct the project, one of fourteen in development at the studio. The casting would see Smith restored to his four-quadrant glory in the movie market, after a villainous left-turn in the top-earning critical bomb ?Suicide Squad? this year. He also had a rough December release with New Line?s ?Collateral Beauty,? co-starring Helen Mirren and Keira Knightley.
