According to a report by Variety.com, Steven Spielberg has committed to direct a remake of “Harvey,” a 1950 film that was an adaptation of the 1944 Mary Chase play about a man who’s best friend is an invisible 6-foot tall rabbit. He will be aiming to begin production early next year.

“Harvey” followed a man named Elwood P. Dowd who shocks and confuses all around him by claiming that he is constantly followed by an invisible rabbit named Harvey who according to Dowd (who was played by James Stewart in the 1950 film) is six feet and three-and-a-half inches tall and is his best friend.
