akashiverDiablo Cody Pens "Young Adult" For Mandate
Several sources cite that the comedy follows a recently divorced thirty-something author of young adult fiction who returns home to in the hope of winning back the affections of her ex-boyfriend. Trouble is, he's now married with a child.
Any movie that involves authors of non-lit-fic genres has my attention. The question is, can Cody write something that isn't yet another rehashing of Juno?
In other news, Angryfilms has bought the rights to Cory Doctorow's Little Brother. I haven't read LB yet, but I hear it's very good. Also, Angela Bassett is to play Dr. Amanda Waller in Green Lantern movie, another suspect version of A Wrinkle in Time is in the works, as is a film about NASA's secret female space program.
Oh yes, and Jason Segel (TV's "How I Met Your Mother," "I Love You Man") has signed to star as the human lead in "The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time". That may, in fact, be kinda awesome.
