Beating out several other studios, Disney has acquired Brad Gann's spec script Invincible for $500,000 against $900,000. The script follows a bartender from Philadelphia who went to an open tryout for the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles and made the squad. Actress Nikki Reed will produce with Mayhem Pictures' two principals Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray as well as Victor Constantino. Brad Epstein is the creative executive for Disney. The film is in the spirit of such recent Ciardi and Gray sports-related pictures as Miracle and The Rookie. Gann's other credits include Static for Columbia. Gann is repped by BWCS, Industry Entertainment and Bloom, Hergott and Diemer.
