"The 39 Clues" Gets a Writer
The hunt begins for The 39 Clues on Sept. 9, 2008. It’s a multi-platform adventure that includes books, online games, card collecting, and a feature film. Yeah, in short, a giant money mill! But I’m sure it’ll be fun for kids.
Jeff Nathanson has signed on to write the screenplay for the first film installment of The 39 Clues. DreamWorks Studios recently acquired the movie rights from Scholastic Media, and Steven Spielberg is eyeing to direct.
Nathanson worked with Spielberg on The Terminal, Catch Me If You Can, and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
