Fox has given a pilot order to a drama that sees students try to achieve their filmmaking dreams by remaking the adventure comedy film about a group of kids who try to find a famous pirate’s long-lost treasure. 

The Bold Type creator Sarah Watson will pen the pilot, with Greg Mottola attached to direct.

In the untitled project, after failing to make it in New York, Stella Cooper returns to her distressed automotive hometown to substitute teach after failing to make it in New York and carrying a heavy secret. She finds inspiration, hope, and ultimately salvation when she agrees to help three students who are pursuing their filmmaking dreams by putting on an impossibly ambitious shot-for-shot remake of one of the student’s favorite movies, The Goonies.

The Goonies was a box office hit, grossing $124 million on a $19 million budget.

Hulu has ordered a pilot based on the comic characters created for DC Vertigo by Jeff Lemire. The production is helmed by Team Downey’s Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey. Team Downey is producing the project with Warner Bros. TV.

Sweet Tooth is described as a coming-of-age drama, which centers on Gus, a boy/deer hybrid who leaves home to find the world ravaged by a cataclysmic event. He joins up with a ragtag family of hybrids and humans to find answers and winds up discovering a vast conspiracy that makes him question his very existence.

Jim Mickle (Hap and Leonard) has been tapped to write and direct the pilot. Team Downey is set to exec produce alongside Amanda Burrell and Linda Moran.

Should it go to series, the Sweet Tooth pilot will join other Vertigo property based productions including the CW’s iZombie, which is going into tis fifth and final season, Lucifer, and AMC’s Preacher.
