Francis Ford Coppola will return to directing after an eight-year hiatus with a bigscreen adaptation of "Youth Without Youth," based on the novella by Romanian author and intellectual Mircea Eliade. Tim Roth, Alexandra Maria Lara, Bruno Ganz and Marcel Iures will star in the movie, scheduled to begin shooting Oct. 3.
