Yet more Houdini media news from the Hollywood Reporter:As Harry Houdini mounts his return to Hollywood with a recently revealed DreamWorks project and a possible Syfy TV series, a slightly older Houdini project is hoping to escape out of development chains.
Summit has hired Noah Oppenheim to pen its take on the master magician in an adaptation of The Secret Life of Houdini, The Making of America's First Superhero.
Summit picked up feature-film rights to the biography by William Kalush and Larry Sloman in March 2009.
