WB STRIKES
"GOLD": In a deal worth $350,000 against $750,000,
Warner Bros. has made a preemptive buy of "Fool's
Gold," a romantic caper spec script written by John
Claflin and Dan Zelman, with Jon Klane producing. The
pic's set up for a star coupling as the film concerns
a man and woman whose discovery of a lucrative
treasure makes them the toast of married couples and
gets them on the cover of magazines such as National
Geographic. Cut to a few years later, when their
attempt to find another lucrative treasure has left
their marriage shipwrecked and has plunged them into
debt. Desperate, the couple attempts to bilk a wealthy
investor with the promise of a big score. WB's Jeff
Robinov will steer the film.
