Exclusive: Lionsgate has acquired action comedy The Spoils, a pitch for Malcolm D. Lee to produce through Blackmaled Productions. The screenplay will be written by Roshan Sethi and Hayley Schore.
The plot revolves around a group of disparate immigrants who realize the London Museum holds their countries’ most prized possessions. They plan an elaborate heist to recover the stolen artifacts and return them to their rightful homes. Both Sethi and Schore wrote The Resident for Fox and Code Black for TBS. Schore also wrote The Black Box for ABC.
The scribes recently were also tapped by Universal/Working Title and Chadwick Boseman to write the true story of astrophysicist Hakeem Oluseyi, based on his upcoming autobiography. Sethi and Schore had two scripts on the Black List in 2017 and currently have several feature films in development — including the Rosalind Franklin drama Exposure and Call Jane, which is set in the pre-Roe v Wade abortion rights movement.
