Update: Marc Maurino
You may remember screenwriter Marc Maurino who sold a spec script last year called “Inside the Machine”:
The story centers on an undercover ATF agent who infiltrates a vicious cartel and is seduced by the power and violence he finds there. “Inside The Machine is about a man struggling to keep his undercover persona from destroying his personal life,” [producer Tripp] Vinson said. “Marc Maurino has written a script that is committed to being authentic. It’s that realism and attention to detail that has us very excited to be involved with Inside The Machine.”
Marc just landed a gig. Per Variety:
Robin Schorr’s RCR Pictures has optioned feature rights to Dennis Tafoya’s crime novel “The Wolves of Fairmount Park.”
Marc Maurino (“Inside the Machine”) has been tapped to write the script.
Story follows the drive-by shooting of two suburban teens, one of whom is the son of a police officer, outside of a Philadelphia drug den. The search for gunmen strains the community to its breaking point.

Maurino recently sold the spec “Inside the Machine” to CBS Films, which preemptively purchased his first script two days after it hit the town. He has been offered several projects, but chose “Wolves” to be his next writing assignment.
Obviously Marc has talent, but we know the real reason why good fortune has come his way: He did a GITS Q&A:
Congratulations, Marc!
