Published last month as a young-adult title by Penguin, "Sleeper Code" is the first of a series that will be refashioned as an adult franchise.
The lead character suffers from an extreme form of narcolepsy, forcing him to be home-schooled and to work out of the house. When his psychologist is murdered and his files go missing, he discovers he hasn't been sleeping at all.
Donaldson and Sanders turned Sniegoski's novel "Fallen" into a trilogy of films for ABC Family, and they've set at Universal the novel "Outcast," which Sniegoski wrote with Christopher Golden. Charlie Mitchell is writing that script, and Donaldson and Sanders are producing with Circle of Confusion.
Keller got the job after writing "The Willing Patriot" for WB and Management 360. He just did a rewrite of "The Tourist," which has Hugh Jackman attached.
