Columbia Picks Up Supermax: "Columbia Pictures has picked up the spec script Supermax from actors-turned-writers Mitch Rouse and Christopher Nelson. Todd Garner will produce via his Broken Road Productions.
The spec is an action horror tale set in a maximum-security prison for the supernatural. The story centers on a skilled prison guard who is re-assigned to Supermax. After a riot erupts, he must join forces with one of the prison's monstrous inmates in order to survive and fight his way out.
The project is unrelated to Warners' Super Max , which is based on DC Comics hero Green Arrow."
