Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

Here’s some interesting news for Chuck Palahniuk fans:

Hey Drew,

Dennis from ChuckPalahniuk.net here. I just got off the phone with Chuck, and it's official, 'Choke', Chuck's 4th novel, has been greenlit and is going into production on June 18th. Here's the story, as we're posting it on our front page.

Please post this with credit to me (as 'Dennis Widmyer') and a link to our site as the Official Site of Chuck Palahniuk.

You can also tell people Chuck is on tour for 'Rant' starting on Wednesday and all the dates are posted here.

***************************

I just got off the phone with Chuck and it's official: Choke is going into production on June 18th! Sam Rockwell is set to star, and first-timer Clark Gregg will be directing. A little history on Gregg: He wrote the Robert Zemeckis thriller What Lies Beneath and, as an actor, is a regular on the hit TV show The New Adventures of Old Christine. Gregg adapted Choke into screenplay form and has been championing the project for years now. God bless him and his tenacity as the film has finally been greenlit for production and Gregg will be getting his debut in the directing chair. Chuck also went on to tell me that the mom is most likely Glenn Close, Annette Benning or Juliana Moore.

Thanks, Drew!
