Jack Black will star and produce The Lost Adventures of Stone Perlmutter Jr. for Universal Studios, says The Hollywood Reporter. The project comes from writers Peter Huyck and Alex Gregory.
“Perlmutter” is described as a faux documentary made from recently “discovered” footage from 1979 chronicling the disastrous journey of a self-styled Indiana Jones-type adventurer who traveled the world trying to find the Yeti, El Dorado, the lost tomb of Jesus and other great mysteries.
Black is attached to play Perlmutter and will produce via his Universal-based Electric Dynamite.
