Paramount Pictures buys Spellman Files film rights
Scriptwriter Lisa Lutz has sold the film rights to her unpublished debut
novel, The Spellman Files which will be published by Simon & Schuster, to
Paramount Pictures.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the story is about an unconventional
family of private investigators who use their skills to spy on one another -
the mother does background checks on her daughter's boyfriends; the father
plants listening devices around the house; and the little sister secretly
takes compromising pictures in order to blackmail them all.
Lutz wrote the script to 2001 film Plan B, a mobster comedy starring Diane
Keaton and Paul Sorvino.
