. . . Going Our Way: “La Femme Nikita,” France’s popular action film about a female political killer (Anne Parillaud stars), may become an American movie as well. (It opens here on March 15, from the Samuel Goldwyn Co.) A “translation” of the film is currently in development at Warner Bros., with Luc Besson--”Nikita’s” director--attached.
. . . Perhaps Jim Morrison was a visionary. In “The Doors,” set in 1968, he talks about Dennis Hopper and “Easy Rider”--which wasn’t released until the fall of 1969.
. . . In the air: Fox Broadcasting’s talking about a series based on the film “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.”
. . . And a pilot’s in the works for a live-action version of “The Jungle Book” for the Disney Channel.
