Bill Clinton and James Patterson are pitching their mystery novel to Hollywood
Back in May, we reported that Bill Clinton and James Patterson were working together on a mystery novel called The President Is Missing, and though the book won’t actually be released until next year, Clinton and Patterson have already begun shopping it around to big-name movie producers in hopes of getting someone to pick up the adaptation rights. That’s according to The Hollywood Reporter, which says the book is being treated as a “top secret property,” with potential producers receiving a watermarked pitch with an expiring link to check out before any potential meetings with Clinton and Patterson. Supposedly, though, the only producers the two of them actually will meet with this week include J.J. Abrams, Steven Spielberg, and George Clooney—so anyone less famous than those three guys is probably out of luck.
