Untitled Moon Project by Ken Nolan.

[Terrance Mulloy]

Anyone got a logline for this?



"Black Hawk Down" screenwriter Ken Nolan has been brought on to rework the script for Paramount's untitled moon project.

Nolan is the latest writer to bring his take to an action film about lunar colonization that has Jake Gyllenhaal attached to star.

Doug Liman, who is producing and directing the film, wrote an original screenplay with John Hamburg ("I Love You, Man"). "Black Hawk Down" book author Mark Bowden revamped that script, then Dan Mazeau did a new version off material compiled from the story work of Liman, Bowden and Simon Kinberg, who also is producing.

The project originally was developed at DreamWorks, but it stayed with Paramount when DreamWorks left the studio in September. Former DreamWorks production president Adam Goodman is shepherding at Paramount.

Lionsgate president of motion picture production Alli Shearmur, a former Paramount exec, also is producing. Dave Bartis is executive producing.

The CAA-repped Nolan has the remake of "Escape From New York" in development at New Line. He wrote the TNT miniseries "The Company: A Story of the CIA," for which he won a WGA Award in 2007."

I always figured that the moon must really suck since nobody goes there anymore. We never even bothered to give it a cool name. It's just Moon. How lame.

The moon sucks.

For a moment I thought this was going to be about the ongoing Keith Moon biopic by John Lahr.

You know, I think Lionsgate really made a bad call with Allison Shearmur. I think she is just the wrong direction for them to go as a studio. Not that they asked my advice...

It's about an immature guy with a penchant for dropping his pants.

Like I said: the Keith Moon bio.

Oh for crying out loud. First my "Zombody to Love" now my "Dark side of the Moon". I'm going to tell myself I'm in the zone. I'm going to take up drinking.

Sorry clueless. I've already done that. You'll have to find something else to do.

I talked to the producers about this a year ago. It's a really cool idea but I shan't say anymore.
