20th Snaps Up Action Spec ‘Test Drive’ From ‘Dexter: Resurrection’s Matt Venne; Safehouse Producing


'Test Drive,' an original action spec from Matt Venne, has landed at 20th Century Studios for development.

He sold his series Cruel Summer, based on the same-name novel, to Legendary TV, with David Goyer boarding to produce, and also previously wrote an installment of Shudder’s Creepshow reboot. Known for mythical action-adventure flicks like Robin Hood and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, Safehouse Pictures most recently saw Netflix release its sci-fi thriller Atlas, starring Jennifer Lopez, which over the summer reached the service’s Top 10 in more than 90 countries. Other credits include Apple TV+’s Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and OWN’s Underground, as well as feature dramedy My Blind Brother and Kevin Asch’s Gotham Award-winning crime drama Holy Rollers.
