As a practical matter I don't see this suit slowing down TH movies. Suits over profit-participation on successful movies are unfortunately all too common. I would be extremely surprised if the Estate could convince a judge to nullify a contract on a different property and make it stick. Of course, I'm not an entertainment lawyer, so...
In the meantime, now that the strike is over, I'd expect formal announcements of a director and a writer soon. If Del Toro becomes official, it's possible he could take on writing duties as well.
