‘Slumdog’ writer pens for animation film ‘Trucker’

Slumdog Millionaire’ writer, Simon Beaufoy who walked away with this year’s Oscar for adapted screenplay, is reportedly wielding his pen for the DreamWorks Animation film, ‘Truckers’.
The project is said to be in the early stages but nothing is known about the story line, The Hollywood Reporter said.
However, Beaufoy isn’t the first screenwriter to work for animation after winning the Oscar. Michael Arndt, who won the original screenplay Oscar for 2006’s ‘Little Miss Sunshine,’ packed his bags for Pixar to work on the script for the forthcoming ‘Toy Story 3′.
Beaufoy is also said to be in talks with ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ producer Lauren Shuler Donner for ‘Wolverine 2′.
