LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - DreamWorks has picked up the movie rights to Roald Dahl's book "The BFG" for Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall to produce amid talk that the studio is clamping down on development.
The studio, which had a series of disappointments before hitting it big with "The Help" this summer, is also moving ahead with a new draft of "The 39 Clues" and has "Help" writer-director Tate Taylor poised to work the same magic on "Pace Like a River."
A DreamWorks insider said that the studio is prioritizing projects it has already purchased, but "certainly can and would purchase something great that comes along."
