Verona is the name of the city that became the setting of Shakespeare's famous tale.
Details of "Verona" are still kept under tight wraps. It is, however, reported that the story will revolve around "a love affair between two teens from opposing Italian families, but the script is said to re-imagine the classic love story through a lens of an epic, '300'-style world."
Directed by Zack Snyder, "300" is a gritty take on the ancient Battle of Thermopylae between 300 Spartans, led by King Leonidas (Gerard Butler), and the massive Persian army, led by Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro).
Casting, production and release dates of the upcoming "Romeo and Juliet" movie are expected to be announced soon.
