From Oscar To Tosca
By now we're used to big screen hits like Legally Blonde being turned into Broadway musicals, but here's something a little different.
The New York City Opera has commissioned a top composer to turn Brokeback Mountain, the short story that inspired the movie starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger, into an opera.
The 2005 film, based on Annie Proulx's 1997 love story about two ranch-hands, picked up three Oscars, plus a Best Actor nomination for Heath.
Now the city's Opera, one of the world's leading companies, has asked 70-year-old Charles Wuorinen to adapt it for the stage.
"Ever since encountering Annie Proulx's extraordinary story, I have wanted to make an opera on it," Wuorinen said in a statement.
It is scheduled to premiere in 2013.

Lindsay Lohan - Lohan Looking Towards Marriage And Kids
LINDSAY LOHAN is putting her troubled past behind her once and for all - and is already looking ahead to marriage and babies.
The Mean Girls star, 21, is attempting to reinvent herself and shed the wild partygirl reputation her two 2007 arrests for driving under the influence and stints in rehab have earned her.
Looking to her future, she's already decided she wants Dolce + Gabbana to design her wedding dress.
She says, "Oh my god, they're such good people to be around. And the way their dresses fit. If I get married, I would definitely want them to do the gown."
And she admits her love of all things European has fuelled her dream to bring up her future kids on the continent - thousands of miles away from her native New York.
She adds, "I love Europe. I love the culture. It's so diverse. If I lived in Europe, I'd definitely speak three languages, and I'd definitely want to raise my children there too.
"Well, we're not going to get into that. But when I talk with my really close friends, that's what I always say."

Southpaw, 821 option 'Miscellaneous'
Freddie Highmore to star in novel adaptation
NEW YORK -- Southpaw Entertainment and 821 Entertainment Group have optioned Dominic Smith's novel "The Beautiful Miscellaneous" to develop into a feature film starring Freddie Highmore.
The coming-of-age tale from Simon & Schuster follows 17-year-old Nathan Nelson (Highmore), who awakens from a coma with an exceptional memory and synesthesia, in which words, shapes or numbers become colors, smells or flavors. His father, a demanding physics professor, sends him to a research institute for savants to find a use for his new gifts.
Southpaw's Richard Barton Lewis and 821's Ben Horton and Eric Geadelmann are exec producing.
The project reunites Southpaw chairman Lewis, 821 president Anastasia Brown and Highmore, who collaborated on Warner Bros.' "August Rush."
Southpaw's upcoming lineup includes Fox's "The Box," with Barry Sonnenfeld attached to direct, and United Artists' "Out of This World." Highmore ("Charlie and the Chocolate Factory") will next be seen in Luc Besson's "Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard."
