Spec script sale: “Tehran”

Imagine Entertainment picks up spec drama “Tehran” from writer Richard Regan:

Drama revolves around an American professor who is contracted by the federal government to observe tensions in pre-coup Tehran in 1977. He realizes that Iran is rife with political danger and his viewpoint is backed up when he falls in love with an Iranian girl whose brother is a member of the secret police.

This is one of the script’s from the 2007 Black List we featured here. Good to see a quality script get picked up, especially by a strong producer like Brian Grazer.
