Untitled and unwritten, Klein's pitch is dancing with the stars at Paramount
Paramount has preemptively bought a pich from “Serendipty” writer Marc Klein as a starring vehicle for Tom Cruise.
“We believe Marc Klein has come up with an original and very moving love story,” Cruise/Wagner exec Don Granger told Daily Variety.
Throughout the pitch meeting, both Paramount and C/W Prods. executives were careful to observe Cruise’s body language: Early on, Cruise leapt over a couch and performed an Arabesque on one of Granger’s ottomans, signifying strong initial interest.
However, an insider familiar with the talks noted that it wasn’t until Cruise actually performed a fouette rond de jambe en tournant on producing partner Paula Wagner‘s credenza that all concerned knew the star was hooked.
