Comedy/horror hybrid set in deep space
Universal Pictures has preemptively acquired a pitch from Rodney Rothman for a project titled The Something. The studio is keeping the story under wraps but is describing as an ensemble comedy/horror hybrid set in deep space, similar in tone to Sony’s breakout hit Zombieland.
Rothman, who was the youngest head writer in the history of Late Night With David Letterman, will write and produce. Universal’s Erik Baiers and Anikah McLaren will oversee The Something for the studio.
