Sometimes author's make a large enough impact that they deserve their own
story, about them. It looks like this rule applies to Kenneth Grahame, the
19th century author who gave us the classic children's book, The Wind in the
Willows. So who to play Grahame?

Ioan Gruffudd for Banking on Mr. Toad
Considering that The Wind in the Willows was published back in 1898, I guess
one doesn't need to worry about likeness when casting the character. I mean,
I've seen the author's picture and I can't say he looks much like Ioan
Gruffudd, who has been cast to play the author.

Titled Banking on Mr. Toad, the biopic will charts Grahame's journey from
his job as the secretary of the Bank of England during the era of
industrialization at the end of the 19th century through to his authoring of
Willows. There will also be added emphasis on Grahame's relationship with
his autistic son.

Bruce Beresford will direct.
