Apparently, Paramount Studios has lost an email. According to an article at The Wrap, an email that identifies Paramount’s current film development efforts was leaked.

While it may not seem like much, that is actually a really big deal. If I’m at a rival studio and see that Paramount is releasing something like what I’m working on, I’m going to make sure mine gets done first so I get the excitement and, consequently, the majority of the money. Given the budgets on some of the files ($125M budget for License to Steal), that has the potential to be costly, indeed.

Paramount is saying that it isn’t an official Paramount message, and that it isn’t completely accurate. That, of course, implies that it is at least somewhat accurate.

Personally, I’m excited for a new Jack Ryan movie, but I’m not sure if Chris Pine is the right guy for it. He seems a little too cocky. On the other hand, I’m very happy to see work on Zoolander 2.
