Roy Lee and Howard David Deutsch are set to produce the film, however there’s no word yet on a writer or director. It’s also worth noting this isn’t the first time the series was attempted to be adapted to the screen. There was a short-lived HBO show and several attempts at creating a movie, with names like Ridley Scott, Chevy Chase, and Goldie Hawn once attached.
My guess is that it’ll either be too silly for adults to enjoy a la Diary of a Wimpy Kid or they’ll go the opposite route and make it for the adult that grew up with the books a la Mystery Team. I’m hoping for the latter but banking on the former.
