Hideout Pictures has acquired the screen rights to Kevin Steverson’s sci-fi novel series “Salvage Title” with plans to turn it into a feature film.
The story follows Harmon Tomeral, an orphan turned space academy pilot who faces an uphill battle in regards to going to space. Harmon and his friend compete in a Top Fleet Marine competition whereby the winner gets 100,000 credits, which would just be enough to start their own salvage company.
If they could build a mech and win the competition, they’re set. But the fleet had already shown they didn’t want Harmon in space, however, it’s a good thing his friends and crew were very much against fleet regulations.
Doug Wagner is penning the script for the film which Shannon Houchins, Trevor O’Neil and Potsy Ponciroli will produce.
