The studio landed the film pitch, still in early development, that has Will Speck and Josh Gordon attached to direct and produce. EGOT winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul will provide original music and produce via their Ampersand production banner. Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the movie will feature a couple of original musical numbers in the vein of Barbie.

The Lucas Bros. (Judas and the Black Messiah) and Max Reisman are set to pen the screenplay about the game that is meant to mimic 19th-century pioneer times, following a covered wagon train heading west.

Speck, Gordon, Pasek, and Paul recently worked together on Sony feature Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile. Speck and Gordon, repped by CAA and Sloane Offer, are also behind films Blades of Glory and Office Christmas Party.

Pasek and Paul recently earned an Emmy for their work on the last season of Only Murders in the Buidling.
