Writer Barbara Marshall landed a one-two punch with her script, Peste. It made not just the annual Blood List, but The Black List as well. And now that script has found a home at IM Global.
Deadline reports the tale will be produced by Sherryl Clark.
Reportedly the first part of a planned trilogy, Peste is set in the wake of an outbreak of a virus that wipes out the majority of the human population. The story focuses on a teen who documents her familys new life in quarantine and tries to protect her infected sister.
A director is being sought for a 2013 production start.
