Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies have agreed to co-produce THE GAME OF SUNKEN PLACES, based on M.T. Andersons Scholastic Press book, according to THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER. The project was pitched to the studios by screenwriter Matt Nix.

Jason Blum will produce via Blumhouse Prods. Damon Ross will shepherd development for Nickelodeon with Elizabeth Raposo and Ben Cosgrove shepherding for Paramount.
