Russo and Sosenko to Adapt TOO COOL TO BE FORGOTTEN
“Too Cool To Be Forgotten is a story that demonstrates that comic books can be as profound and moving as they can be funny and entertaining, and that is exactly what this team hopes to replicate on the screen.”Cartoonist, Alex Robinson, whose previous works Box Office Poison and Tricked brought him critical acclaim, was praised for his publication, Too Cool To Be Forgotten, which earned him the Harvey Award for Best Original Graphic Novel. Likely Story is currently completing three films, Stephen Frears’ Lay The Favorite which will have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this month; Laurence Kasdan’s Darling Companion, which is being released by Sony Pictures Classics this April; and The Oranges, which ATO is releasing in the Fall of 2012. The company is going into production in 2012 on films by Charlie Kaufman, Nicole Holofcener, and Bennett Miller. Red Crown Productions acquired American Wife, which Ron Nyswaner is penning, and is in post-production on Scott McGehee & David Siegel’s What Maisie Knew, a Henry James adaptation shot on location in New York City with Julianne Moore, Alex Skarsgard and Steve Coogan. The company will premiere their film Goats at the Sundance Film Festival later this month. Robinson and Top Shelf are both represented by Nick Harris at ICM.
