Do you ever do that thing where someone you are with says something totally blasphemous and you take a few steps away so the lightning bolt God will be sending to your friend won’t hit you? I think the friends of screenwriters Alan Schoolcraft and Brent Simons should probably take a few steps back. According to Variety, the two have sold a script to Disney called All About Adam. Yeah, THAT Adam.
The story is reportedly about the biblical Adam who goes to present-day New York to find Eve after they have a fight. Satan, that Angel of Light, was behind their problems all the time. Boy, who saw that coming? There are no stars, director, or set designer on board yet, but Scott Rudin will produce.
I’m sure Brent and Alan are great guys who have nothing to fear from God but their eternal damnation, so don’t take anything I say about them too seriously. I think once the Lord was ok with Charlton Heston as Moses, everything became fair game. If Steve Carell can be Noah then I’m sure Adam and Eve in modern day New York will be perfectly fine. Satan in New York, though, now that’s a stretch.
