Spec Script Sale: “The Making of Rock Hudson”

Maven Pictures acquires biopic spec script “The Making of Rock Hudson” written by Tyler Ruggeri. From Deadline:

The transformation of Hudson from a shy kid into a sex symbol with rugged good looks was a tricky bit of business, in that he was forced to keep secret his homosexuality. The script tells the story from the vantage point of Henry Willson, the agent who discovered Hudson. Beyond changing the actor’s name, Willson became adept at keeping secrets.

Ruggeri is repped by Gersh and Anonymous Content.

By my count, this is the 18th spec script sale of 2013.

Last year there were 29 spec script sales year-to-date.
