Zappa's Monstrous Snapped Up
Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films have paid $1.5 million for film rights to the unpublished novel
Monstrous Memoirs of a Mighty McFearless by first-time writer Ahmet Zappa, Variety reported.
The story concerns a young brother and sister who learn their family is part of a long line of monster hunters. The pair squabble constantly, but must band together against the most diabolical creature in the universe, the trade paper reported.
The book is scheduled for publication in August from Random House as a hardcover, with full-color art. Zappa wrote the story and penned some 300 illustrations.
