British filmmaker Gurinder Chadha is being tipped to direct the film version of the hit 1980s TV series "Dallas".

Variety newspaper said the director of "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Bride and Prejudice" was close to signing up as a replacement for original choice Robert Luketic, who backed out for creative reasons, BBC reported on its website.
