Even more musicals: Ghost

According to The London Paper, the 1990 (yes, it's been almost 20 years) Oscar-winning movie "Ghost" is set to become a musical.

"Ghost," starring Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore, tells the story of a couple who gets mugged resulting in the death of Swayze's character. His ghost, however, is trapped and can't leave because he learns that Moore's character is in danger.

The musical is set to be directed by Matthew Warchus with the original screenplay to be adapted by Bruce Joel Rubin.

The music is reportedly being co-written by former Eurythmics star Dave Stewart. Stewart will be penning the music and lyrics with Glen Ballard. Ballard is a Grammy Award-winning writer known for his work as a producer on Alanis Morissette's "Jagged Little Pill."
