Comic greats Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean will collaborate on a feature film, set to go into production this year.
A source at Jim Henson Pictures tells us that "Mirror Mask" will be directed by McKean from a script by Gaiman. Both men developed the story.
McKean has prior experience directing short films including "The Week Before and N[eon]". His previous works are said to be reminiscent of his multi-media Sandman covers, with live action footage accented by various forms of animation.

Pre-production is due to beginning in February with principal photography beginning some time in the Spring. The feature is expected to go direct to video.
