Pic's plot is being kept under wraps.
Project marks the second consecutive collaboration for the trio. Arnold and Poole recently sold spec "The Grackle" to New Line, where it's a starring vehicle for Matthew McConaughey. O'Connor is producing with McConaughey's j.k. livin' producing shingle.
After the sale of "Grackle," Fox Atomic, Fox's new teen-oriented genre label, mobilized to make a blind deal with Arnold and Poole. As part of the deal, Fox Atomic was granted a two-day first look at the duo's new spec, which they quickly bought.
The scribes still have not quit their day jobs as attorneys. Arnold lives in Colorado and Poole is a federal prosecutor in Tennessee. They eventually plan to move to Los Angeles.
