Even
though
her
recent
home
production,
The
Mistress
of
Spices,
turned
out
to
be
rather
bland,
Gurinder
Chadha
is
undeterred.
In
fact,
she
is
taking
up
a
brand
new
project,
Dallas
which
she
will
be
directing.
It
is
the
big
screen
adaptation
of
the
hit
TV
series
of
the
same
name.
She
will
be
directing
none
other
than
John
Travolta
and
Jennifer
Lopez,
in
the
film.
Dallas
happens
to
be
the
longest
running
American
TV
Series,
ever.
Started
in
1978,
it
was
on
air
for
13
years.
It
is
based
on
the
Ewing
family,
living
in
Texas.
In
her
preparation,
Chadha
is
trying
to
learn
all
that
she
can
about
the
Texans.
She
is
quite
excited
about
directing
Travolta
and
Lopez.
In
fact,
Travolta
is
a
fan
of
her
past
work.
The
film
also
stars
Luke
Wilson
and
Shirley
MacLaine.
Other
actors
are
yet
to
be
finalized.
