Pitch sale: “Untitled Apocalypse Project”

Fox buys “Untitled Apocalypse Project” from writers Jeremy Passmore and Andre Fabrizio:

The project is based on an original idea about a group of people who survive the end of the world and the mystery surrounding how they got to that position.

The apocalypse and all that follows is going through one of its semi-regular renaissances in Hollywood, with Sony set to release the Roland Emmerich end-of-days pic “2012” on Friday.

The Book of Revelations almost didn’t make it into the New Testament canon. I wonder if human culture would have anything near the obsession it does with the ‘End Times’ if it hadn’t made the cut.

Also reminds me that when I was at Yale Divinity School, some of the students there put out a semi-regular satirical newsletter called “Eschatology Today.” Stupid me. I had a pitch for a blockbuster Hwood pitch staring me right in the face and never saw it!
