Universal Pictures has acquired The Best Thing About Pam Rooney, a comic pitch for a feature to be written by Andrew Jay Cohen and Brendan O’Brien as a star vehicle for Jonah Hill.
Variety reports that Hill will produce the high-concept romantic comedy, and the screenwriters will be executive producers.
Like Hill, the writers come out of Judd Apatow’s comedy factory. They were co-producers on Apatow’s Funny People, in which Hill is a star.
