Disney Goes Nutty and Gives Shankman a New "Job"

Variety reports that The Mouse House has bought the rights to a pitch entitled "Nutjobs," which focuses on "a sufferer of obsessive compulsive disorder (who) teams with a compulsive liar in an attempt to prove their therapist’s supposed suicide was murder." The comedic murder-mystery was written by Alan Cohen and Alan Freedland (both of whom wrote for TV’s "King of the Hill"), and Disney is apparently eyeing Adam Shankman ("The Pacifier," "Bringing Down the House") to direct the murderous farce.
