Gordon

Fox has pacted with "Four Christmases" helmer Seth Gordon and scribe Adam F. Goldberg on a comedy about a group of twentysomething geniuses who are tasked with cracking computer security systems.

The single-camera project hails from Sony Pictures TV and Adam Sandler's Happy Madison shingle. The untitled laffer stems from an idea of Gordon's that he developed into a series concept with Goldberg and the Happy Madison crew. Goldberg will pen the script and exec produce if it is picked up to pilot. Gordon is onboard to helm the pilot, if it goes, and exec produce.

In addition to "Christmases," Gordon's credits include the docu "King of Kong." Goldberg is penning the script for DreamWorks Animation's "How to Train Your Dragon."

Gordon and Goldberg are repped by WME.
