According to Variety, Columbia has picked up a script from first-time writer and former criminal lawyer Mike Sobel called "Animals" which is about the animal kingdom turning on humanity and tacking back the planet. Boy, these hippie themes have really taken hold lately. The deal is said to be in the mid-six figures, and while normally I wouldn't announce that, for a first timer I think the fact that he's a lawyer has something to do with the high price. I can go for stunt men, actors, music video directors, heck even milkmen turned writer/director, but a lawyer? Ugh.
