Image details: 2nd Rome Film Festival – Photocall With Joel Surnow served by picapp.com
Joel Surnow left 24 earlier this year to pursue new opportunities, and now he’s found them. Morgan Creek Productions has bought Surnow’s screenplay for a romantic comedy titled ‘That Face.’ The story is about a photographer who brands a woman he meets on the street as the next great supermodel, only to discover that she’s rather crass and just the opposite. He of course must mold her to be the woman he said she was.
I can only assume that throughout this journey he’ll discover that he’s in love with her. Kinda like Freddie Prinze Jr. did in ‘She’s All That’ or maybe like Henry Higgins and Eliza Dolittle, especially since this sounds like a mild copy of ‘Pygmalion’. And my mild I mean remake without the credit.
That sucks. Why quit something as original as 24 then move on to brainless, overdone rom-coms?
This is sad! I think there is more to the story of him leaving 24 than reported.
