Michael Crichton’s Final Book to Get Spielberg Treatment

Before he passed away, Michael Crichton was working on one last book: Pirate Latitudes. Well, according to USA Today, none other than Steven Spielberg is developing a film out of the book.

DreamWorks Studios describes the novel, set for release Nov. 24, as the story of “a daring plan to infiltrate Port Royal, one of the world’s richest and most notorious cities, and raid a Spanish galleon filled with treasure.”

“It’s a mission movie, and we see it through the prism of what it might have been like to live on the island during that time,” says Stacey Snider, Spielberg’s partner in DreamWorks and the company’s co-chair and CEO.
