Spec Script Deal: “Senior Year”

CBS Films acquires comedy spec script “Senior Year” written by Andrew Knauer and Arthur Pielli. From Deadline:

After a cheerleader falls off a pyramid and knocks herself into a coma, she awakens 20 years later (present day) in the body of a 37-year-old woman. But having only aged physically and knowing nothing else, she returns to reclaim her seat at the cool table and win the prom queen crown that has eluded her.

This reads like a high concept straight out of the 80s… and I mean that in a good way as you can ‘see’ the movie right away.

Deal is for a reported mid-six figures.

Writers are repped by Gersh and Benderspink.

By my count, this is the 3rd spec script deal in 2015.

There were 7 spec script deals year-to-date in 2014.
