Matt Mider and Kevin Burrows’ adventure package was picked up by the studio.
Jason Momoa is getting ‘Shots! Shots! Shots!’ from Universal.
Shots! Shots! Shots!, an action-comedy based on Matt Mider and Kevin Burrows’ screenplay and has the appearance of Jason Momoa, has been taken up by the studio.
The cast also includes Jeff Fierson, Dan Lin, and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback, who previously worked on the multibillion-dollar live-action Aladdin and The Two Popes, an Oscar-nominated drama.
The plot is being kept under wraps, but the film is characterized as a family-oriented adventure with shades of James Cameron‘s True Lies, Liam Neeson‘s Taken trilogy, and Paramount’s recent smash The Lost City.
The project will be overseen by Universal Pictures executive VP Matt Reilly and content production executive Jacqueline Garell.
Haunted Mansion is now in post-production and will be released on March 10, 2023, starring Owen Wilson and Rosario Dawson. Easter Sunday, an Amblin and Universal’s comedy starring comedian Jo Koy, which premieres Aug. 5, is also produced by the business.
Mider and Burrows wrote recently about a trip gone awry in the Netflix comedy The Package, which debuted in 2018. Stoned Alone, a Home Alone reinvention about a 20-ish stoner, is being developed for Ryan Reynolds and his Maximum Effort label.
The duo is represented by WME and Silver Lake Entertainment.
Momoa, who is represented by WME, is presently filming Fast X, the next episode in the Fast and Furious franchise, in London. Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is also in postproduction for a March 17, 2023 release. Momoa’s Netflix fantasy Slumberland, based on the Winsor McKay comic strips, is set to release later this year.
