Fox 2000 Picks up

‘Wimpy Kid’

Fox 2000 is brining Jeff Kinney’s bestselling “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” book series to the big screen as a live-action family film and potential franchise. The studio purchased all rights to the five novels, composed of handwriting and animation, chronicling the daily indignities faced by middle school student Greg Haffley.  Former Buena Vista president Nina Jacobson will produce the first feature, with more to possibly follow.  Carla Hacken is overseeing the film’s development for the studio. 

Author/illustrator Kinney’s first books, last spring’s “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” and February’s “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules,” both hit No. 1 on the New York Times best-seller list, with the first book staying there for 45 weeks.  The author launched his underdog hero’s story on Funbrain.com in 2004, attracting more than 50 million visits from fans.

Fox 2000 young adult book scout Riley Ellis met with Kinney a year ago and brought in the project, helping make the rights deal with agent Sylvie Rabineau and attorney Keith Fleer.  The studio is currently seeking a director and screenwriter for the projects.

The third book “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw” is due later this year, with two more sets to be written.
