Hunky Aussie helmer Robert Luketic ("Legally Blonde", "Monster-in-Law") is in negotiations to direct "21" for Columbia Pictures says Reuters

"21," based on Ben Mezrich's best-selling nonfiction book "Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions," revolves around a group of young men who become experts in the art of card counting.

The helmer, who had been prepping to direct the big-screen version of the '80s soap "Dallas" for Fox, likely would make "21" his next project. It is unclear how Luketic's negotiations with Columbia will affect his involvement in "Dallas".
