Origin Story Time

If I told you that Hollywood had optioned a Tony Abbott work of fiction for the silver screen, what would your first reaction be? Probably something along the lines of, "AUGHH! Droon movie!", right? Wrong-o. According to Cinematical, movie blog of my heart, Paramount has optioned Tony Abbott's book Kringle. The original draft of the screenplay is being written by director of Chicken Little, Mark Dindal, and Rush Hour 3 writer, Jason Richman.

Million dollar question time for you then, kids. You're all very smart people. Many of you read great heaping helpings of children's literature. So comment at will, chickens:

Who has read Kringle?
