Paramount has picked up a sci-fi action comedy pitch from Mortal Media, the banner of the NBA's Blake Griffin and the NFL's Ryan Kalil. ..... Plot details are being kept under wraps, but the project is shaping up to be the first original feature being developed by the shingle. Mortal is developing a reboot of Disney's The Rocketeer (1991) that will be headlined by a black female character and a White Men Can't Jump remake from Black-ish creator Kenya Barris at Fox.

White Men Can’t Jump is getting back into the game.

The Rocketeer is ready to blast off once again. ..... The project, in the early development stages, is considered a sequel-reboot and, in a modern-day twist, will be headlined by a black female character. ..... Brigham Taylor, who produced The Jungle Book with Jon Favreau, is producing along with Blake Griffin of the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers and Ryan Kalil of the NFL's Carolina Panthers. Griffin and Kalil are partners in a new venture called Mortal Media and approached Taylor with the idea for the reboot.

Ryan's production company, Mortal Media, continues to pick up steam, working with some pretty big names in Hollywood. I wish him well with the venture .......... next year. Concentrate on Panthers football this year, Ryan!!

I'm sure he'll be 100% focused on football. Being a producer isn't that much work. A lot of it is approving financing and high-level, joint decision-making. It's one of the reasons Harvey Weinstein had so much time to rape so many women...

We should have made the smart business move and sped up the process for his ass. 

couldve saved quite a few million just by cutting him alone. 

But then again we did nothing to upgrade our oline in the offseason and you saw what happened to the line last season when Ryan went was out..yikes.

I get where you in particular are coming from, but come on, do you really think Ryan Kalil is doing any of the heavy lifting? Do you think that half of the 'producers' in the movie industry today are doing what you've had to do since you're basically your own production company?

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
