Ashton Kutcher is in final negotiations to star in Paramount Pictures football comedy Traded, which had been developed at DreamWorks but became the property of Paramount following DreamWorks’ exit in the fall.
The story centers on a superstar NFL quarterback and a 12-year-old middle school geek who magically trade bodies, then quickly learn valuable lessons about humility and courage.
David Stem and David Weiss, who wrote the upcoming 20th Century Fox family film They Came From Upstairs, penned the most recent draft.
