Margret & Stevie

Publishers are circling, eager to rewrite Curious George's co-creator Margret Rey's legacy—but as they close in, so do the memories of the war she survived decades earlier. In her chain-smoking, foul mouthed dog walker Stevie, Margret finds an unlikely friend—and a spark of renewed hope to fight back.

Matthew Weiner, creator of Mad Men, set to direct. Stephenie Gillis to pen the script. Shirley MacLaine attached to star.
