Producers Anita Greenspan and pro-skater Tony Hawk with executive producer Adam Zotovich announced today that a new musical adaptation of the 2007 Nick Hornby (About a Boy, High Fidelity) novel, SLAM, is in development. Film composer Mark Mothersbaugh (Thor: Ragnarok, The LEGO Movie, 21/22 Jump Street, The Royal Tenenbaums) is writing the music and lyrics for the project, which will feature a book by Kyle Jarrow (SpongeBob SquarePants the Musical).
