Deadline first reported back in 2023 that an adaptation of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's famed musical was in the early stages of development at Amazon Studios, with Chu set to helm the project.
He added: “It’s my favourite show, but it’s a hard one to recognise for now or [work out] how to do it with the tone. But I love it so much, it’s so playful. I think we’ve cracked something in it that’s really cool.”
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat premiered on Broadway in 1982, with music by Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Rice.
The adaptation will see Chu reunite with his In the Heights producing partner Scott Sanders, with Mara Jacobs also producing.
He added: "We have some great things for that one. We're still working on the script."
