Julianne Moore to star in 'Wonderstruck'

Actress Julianne Moore will reunite with her "Far From Heaven" director Todd Haynes for upcoming film "Wonderstruck", an adaptation of an eponymous children's book by Brian Selznick.

The book, part prose and part black and white illustrations, tells the story of two children, both deaf, from different time periods, one from 1927, one from 1977, who run away to New York. Despite a gap of decades, they are connected by a mystery waiting to be solved, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

Selznick, whose book "The Invention of Hugo Cabret" was adapted into the 2011 Martin Scorsese film "Hugo", also wrote the script for the new movie.
