Rising Aussie star Naomi Watts will headline First Look Pictures' romantic comedy adaptation of Amy Sutherland's "Kicked, Bitten and Scratched: Life and Lessons at the World's Premiere School for Exotic Animal Trainers" reports Variety.
Sutherland's book focuses on the year she spent with students at the Exotic Animal Training and Management Program at Moorpark College, where students learn how to communicate with animals such as camels, emus, baboons, cougars, wolves and snakes.
Alumni hold posts at the world's top zoos, aquariums and sanctuaries or become trainers who work in television and film. Todd Louiso and Jacob Koskoff are scripting.
