Blonde bombshell Scarlett Johansson has been rumoured to star in 'Lunatic At Large', an original story written by the late iconic director Stanley Kubrick in the 1950s that he thought was lost and could never be found.Actor Sam Rockwell, who has played a diverse set of characters ranging from Zaphod Beeblebrox in 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy' to Charley Ford in 'The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford', has also been attached to the project.

Kubrick's son-in-law, Phillip Hobbs, found the misplaced treatment while rummaging through the deceased's items in his estate that surrounds his former home, Childwickbury Manor, in Hertfordshire, England. Hobbs said in a report by New York Times that his father-in-law, thinking that it could never be found, wished "he knew where it was, because it was such a great idea."

'Lunatic' was completed by Kubrick and pulp writer Jim Thompson in the 1950s and is set in 1956 New York. Production on the project was supposed to begin in the early 1960s but Kubrick, whose most famous works include directing '2001: A Space Odyssey' and 'A Clockwork Orange', abandoned the project after being offered the chance to direct 'Spartacus' by its eventual star, Kirk Douglas.

According to The Guardian, the movie is about an ex-carnival worker with serious anger-management issues who meets a nervous but attractive barfly, most likely played by Johansson. Insiders revealed that throughout the movie, the audience will have to figure out which of the characters is an axe murderer escaped from an asylum.
