Sofia will write and direct the film, reports variety.com.
The original story followed an injured Confederate soldier (played by Eastwood) who found refuge at an all-girls boarding school during the Civil War and conned his way into several lonely women's hearts.
This would mark a reunion for Sofia and Fanning, who starred in the filmmaker's drama "Somewhere". Sofia is also a frequent collaborator with Dunst, who has appeared in a handful of her films, including 'Marie Antoinette'.
