Please note that this only the HIRING of a screenwriter who will attempt to write the movie screenplay, and "will base the film on ........'The Kitchen Boy.' " It does not infer that the title will be that, nor that it would totally follow the book, simply attempting to BASE the screenplay on the book (For reasons of the recent skeletal remains found, it CANNOT remain true to the book's actual ending). There are MANY, MANY steps from the screenwriter hiring, completion of the screenplay , acceptance of the screenplay, trying to "sell it" to a "distributor-financier", etc., etc. Thus, in my opinion, we will all have a few years added to our ages, if .....and this is a BIG "IF".......it ever appears in a theater and recoups its investment.
