Chris Columbus (“Percy Jackson,” “Mrs. Doubtfire”) is negotiating to direct the action comedy “The Secret Lives of Road Crews” at Paramount Pictures says Deadline.
The story follows a clandestine group of road crew workers who are the last line of defense against a subterranean alien race. Kevin Lund and T.J. Scott scripted the feature, with Craig Mazin doing a re-write and writers being sought for another re-write.
Hal Lieberman is producing and was originally attached back when the project was set up at DreamWorks.
