The movie will be produced by Tom Cruise, together with Ben Stiller and Stuart Cornfeld of Red Hour Films. They have already secured the life rights to Grossman.
Grossman, is proably best known as a mega producer. In 2008, Grossman was introduced to the masses by Stiller in the comedy "Tropic Thunder" where the famed producer had a cameo playing himself.
Ben Stiller said: “Les Grossman's life story is an inspiring tale of the classic human struggle to achieve greatness against all odds. He has assured me he plans to quote, ‘F**king kill the sh*t out of this movie and make Citizen f**king Kane look like a piece of crap home movie by the time we are done.’ I am honored to be working with him.”
When asked what the screenplay was about Grossman responded: “To quote my great friend Kirk Lazarus, ‘I don’t read the script, the script reads me.’”
Adam Goodman, Paramount Film Group President said, "Everything I learned in this business, I've learned from Les. I started out as his assistant, and from the first day he threw his desk at me when I got his lunch order wrong, I have loved him like a father. I am forever grateful to Ben and Stuart Cornfeld and their ability to secure his highly-coveted life rights,"
Tom Cruise is said to be in talks to portray Grossman in the film. Michael Bacall (“Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”) will write the script. He is repped by WME. WME also reps Ben Stiller and Red Hour Films.
