Paramount 'Hot' for Jay Dyer's spec

J.J. Abrams to produce high school comedy

Paramount Pictures has purchased Jay Dyer's spec "Hot for Teacher," with J.J. Abrams to produce via his studio-based Bad Robot shingle.

Story revolves around three high school boys who vow to have sex before they graduate; one of the teens plots to seduce a hot teacher.

Bad Robot most recently delivered the monster film "Cloverfield" for the studio. The shingle also has a number of projects in various stages of development and production with Paramount, including "Star Trek," "Morning Glory" and "Men Making Music."

Dyer is a supervising producer on Showtime series "Californication." He previously sold to New Line the spec "Multiple Mary," which Scot Armstrong is attached to direct.
