Murder in the White House: Paramount Acquires Jonathan Stokes Spec Script - ComingSoon.net

Deadline is reporting that Paramount Pictures has bought Jonathan Stokes’ spec script for Murder in the White House with Neal Mortiz and Toby Jaffe set to produce for Original Film.

The script is described as a Knives Out-style whodunnit set inside the White House. The President is murdered during a private dinner, and a female Secret Service agent has till morning to discover which guest is the killer before a peace agreement fails and leads to war.

I love thrillers set in US politics, especially with the White House involved, love the sound of this.

I have to confess to a bit of an eye-roll when I saw the title but that actually does sound pretty good!

I want an all star cast!

Always down for a new whodunnit.

As long as it's not an unoriginal carbon copy of Knives Out I'm in!
