Washington, Jan 30 (ANI): Directors Robert Redford and Barry Levinson are getting ready to make a film on the best-selling travelogue 'A Walk in the Woods'.

While Levinson is in talks to direct the film, Redford plans to star and produce the pic, reports The Hollywood Reporter

The travelogue written by Bill Bryson describes his attempt to walk the 2,100-mile Appalachian Trail, hiking trail in the eastern United States, with his college buddy Stephen Katz.

The book includes wit, satire, political commentary and criticism.

It has also faced criticism for inaccuracies and embellishments by some hikers. (ANI)
