Amazon MGM bought 200 monksJan Saenz’s debut novel which was presented as Margo has money problems is meeting An uncut gems, with Imagine Entertainment on board to produce.
200 monks follows a graduate student who has 48 hours to sell her recently deceased mother’s stash of pills, described as “a rare drug with incredible side effects.” She enlists the help of a local drug dealer with a heart of gold to get the job done. Little Brown acquired Saenz’s book earlier this month for publication.
Saenz will adapt and executive produce. Imagine’s Brian Grazer and Jeb Brody will serve as producers, with Brody and Joyce Choi overseeing the project for Imagine.
Imagine products 200 monks via his first look with Amazon MGM, after working with the studio Thirteen lives and documents like Judy Blume forever. The companies are currently working together on Luca Guadagnino’s upcoming film After the hunt, starring Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield.
Choi and Alexa Marcasciano led the acquisition for Imagine. Saenz is repped by CAA and Jessica Spitz at Janklow & Nesbit. Imagine is represented by CAA.
