New Crichton novel hitting big screen
DreamWorks Studios has acquired the film rights to the action-adventure novel “Pirate Latitudes,” which Crichton wrote just before his death in November. Spielberg, who directed Koepp’s adaptations of Crichton’s “Jurassic Park” and “The Lost World,” will produce the film and possibly direct.
The book, meanwhile, comes out on November 24.
