I wanted to save this news for next week, but the NY Times has forced my hand. Yes, it's true, J. J. Abrams is now attached to direct the the film adaptation of CELEBRATED SUMMER. As a special treat, here's the first half page of the screenplay we've been collaborating on:
FADE IN
CLOSE UP along the railing of the deck of Cafe Nightingale... LENS FLARE briefly obscures the camera's view, but then we see a CLOSED EYE, which opens suddenly, with a look of desperate horror. This is TIM PAGE, and he has no idea how he ended up lying there.
Next to him is a box, a mysterious box that looks like it should not be opened, under any circumstances. So, Tim doesn't, he just continues to lie on the floor, looking dazed. He might be thinking about his relationship with his father, but since this is a movie, who knows?
Oh, and there's a HUGE MONSTER, running amuck. Probably should have mentioned that earlier. It's hard to get a good view, because there's more LENS FLARE.
Exciting stuff!
