Warner Bros. version of Tarzan is still in the very early stages of production, and is need of a director. It is rumored that David Yates and Susanna White (Nanny McPhee Returns) have taken an interest in directing the film. Deadline states:

Tarzan film at Warner Bros that I’m hearing has the interest of filmmakers David Yates, Gary Ross and Susanna White.

(This statement has been partially contradicted by IGN's report that Gary Ross has stated he does not have an interest in directing the film.)
