Vincenzo Natali's NEUROMANCER inches towards being more than just virtual reality

Here is some good news to come out of Cannes.  The Canadian / European co-production of Neuromancer, with ScreenAnarchy favourite Vincenzo Natali in the directors chair, has just got enough foreign capital to begin pre-production.  Those familiar with this project know that it has gone through a lot of studios, directors, and writers (about 20 years worth) rivaling only Ender's Game as a 'classic piece of science fiction' that cannot seem to make its way to the big screen.
