Frey to write Prep
Paramount Pictures and MTV Films have hired James Frey to adapt the screenplay for Prep, based on Jake Coburn's dark novel about prep schools in New York City. The story centers on a young man who is seduced by the uninhibited party life of the city. During a seemingly long weekend, he makes up with a girlfriend as he attempts to save her younger brother, the target of a local gang.
Frey wrote the memoir A Million Little Pieces, which is being turned into a movie by Warner Bros.
