> Samuel L. Jackson is… The Man That Rocks the Cradle

New Line has struck a deal with Samuel L. Jackson's production company, Uppity Films. They have bought a spec script by Josh Cagan, from a story by Cagan and Rob McKittrick, called The Man That Rocks the Cradle. According to Variety, the film "revolves around an overworked husband and father of four who decides the solution to all his problems is a live-in nanny. Jackson will play the nanny, Marion Delacroix, a reputed "kid whisperer" from the South." Never thought you'd hear "Sam Jackson" and "whisperer" in the same paragraph, did you

Jackson will also produce the film with Uppity Films' Michael Nash.
