ANACONDA REBOOT (Patreon)

Details on the ANACONDA Reboot from Sony;

Logline: Wannabe filmmakers who never made it decide to reboot "Anaconda" and travel to the Amazon, where they get caught up in the fight for a flower that might cure cancer

Characters;

DOUG MCCALLISTER: Curious, enthusiastic, and creative. Grew up wanting to be Sam Raimi, now finds himself shooting wedding videos. When Doug's wife MALIE throws him a surprise party, and his old high school friends- GRIFF, CLAIRE and KENNY - get together, they watch the bad horror movie they made in high school and get it into their heads that they can make a reboot of an old favorite, Anaconda, to which Griff claims to now own the rights. They raise a little capital
and take off for the jungle, where they fall in with ANA, who, it turns out, is masquerading as a riverboat captain and is really on the run
from big pharma goon MYRON because she's discovered a flower that supposedly cures cancer. Of course, a real, giant anaconda's
stalking them all, too. Doug and Griff have to hash out their differences to thwart Myron and then kill the anaconda, making a memorable movie in the process.

GRIFF: Doug's friend. Tan, handsome with black lab energy. He's made a go of as a Hollywood actor and has had some bit parts. Griff shows up at Doug's party with a copy of the old movie they made and claims to own the rights to Anaconda and pitches everyone on rebooting it. Doug's frustrated making wedding videos, and Claire
and Kenny don't have much going on, so they all jump ship to the jungle, where they fall in with Ana and run afoul of Myron and the giant anaconda. Doug and Griff hash out old differences, and Griff ends up bravely volunteering to risk his life to lure the anaconda to its demise.

ANA: She's on the run from big pharma goon Myron and his henchman because she and cohort Sebastian have discovered a flower that supposedly cures cancer. She masquerades as a riverboat captain to Doug and crew, though they ultimately learn the truth and help her to find the flower and thwart Myron.
