Aline Brosh McKenna has 27 Dresses, The Devil Wears Prada and the forthcoming Rachel McAdams/Harrison Ford movie Morning Gloy to her name and there’s news tonight of her next project.
Last year McKenna met with the team of Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, whose recent sterling work with J.J. Abrams and, to a lesser extent, Michael Bay have catapulted the pair high in the Hollywood hills, and the trio conspired to work together and the resulting fruits of their labour are almost ripe to pluck.
McKenna’s script for the Benjamin Mee memoir We Bought A Zoo was updated by Cameron Crowe who will direct with Matt Damon rumoured to be involved in the project and a few months ago word seeped out that McKenna caught the eye of Disney for their live action version of Cinderella so she’s not short of work.
