Trade magazine The Hollywood Reporter said Pollinger, the UK agency which handles the literary estate of the late author John Wyndham, agreed the deal.

Chocky is about a boy who appears to have an imaginary friend, but is actually taken over by alien entity.

Oscar-winning director Spielberg's credits include ET and Jurassic Park.

Chocky is a 1968 novel written by Wyndham, the British science fiction writer best known for The Day of the Triffids.
