The story reportedly centers around a pampered actress who joins the Marines to convince a movie producer that she's fit for an upcoming military film. When she arrives at Camp Pendleton, she realizes she's made a huge mistake but decides that she has to stick it out.

The Warner Bros. project is based on a spec script by April Blair.

When executives are licensing Comic Books, Video Games, Books and even boardgames now the spark of originality is well and truly extinguished. Yes Hasbro have just sold the rights to Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly and Clue. Can you imagine the inane nonsense that would be Trivial Pursuit: The Movie?
