Industry:<\/strong>\u00a0Film<\/p>\n

Company:<\/strong>\u00a0DreamWorks<\/p>\n

What Made Him Haute:<\/strong>\u00a0Arguably the world\u2019s most famous filmmaker, Spielberg currently has more than 30 projects underway, including\u00a0Indiana Jones 5, War Horse<\/em>, and an untitled Martin Luther King Jr. project.<\/p>\n

What Makes Him Haute Now:<\/strong>\u00a0Although James Frey has amassed much criticism within the media and literary worlds, being denounced by Oprah and shunned by many book circles, it\u2019s not time to close the books on him anytime soon. Steven Spielberg, Stacey Snider and Michael Bay are reading between the lines and turning a sci-fi novel from Frey\u2019s \u201cFull Fathom Five,\u201d his new book series, film and television venture into a DreamWorks film.<\/p>\n

Spielberg and Snider read the book and acquired the film rights to \u201cI Am Number Four\u201d soon after. The film, which will be produced by Bay, will star Alex Pettyfer, Dianna Argon and Timothy Olyphant. Opening in theaters in February 2011, this will be DreamWorks Studios\u2019 first release since becoming independent from Paramount Pictures.<\/p>\n

As the\u00a0Wall Street Journal<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0New York Magazine\u00a0report, Frey is taking a page from the Harry Potter series, as well as \u201cTwilight\u201d and \u201cGossip Girl,\u201d with Full Fathom Five, employing M.F.A. students or graduates from schools including Columbia University and Princeton University, magazine editors from coast-to-coast and established novelists to develop fiction books, which he then markets to film studios, television production companies and publishing companies.<\/p>\n
