Spec Script Deal: “Honey Trapped”

StudioCanal and The Picture Company acquire action spec script “Honey Trapped” written by April Wolfe. Via Deadline:

Sources say the story follows a cabal of secret assassins who descend upon Las Vegas for 24 hours to force a rogue agent into fighting their way up every floor of a busy hotel. The script is said to be a star-driven two-hander featuring a married couple on the rocks with a lot of secrets — in the vein of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and True Lies. Plans are for the project to be fast tracked.

The deal is reported to be a preemptive purchase.

Wolfe is repped by UTA.

By my count, this is the 16th spec script deal in 2022.
