From The Hollywood Reporter:
"24" creator Joel Surnow's romantic comedy screenplay That Face will be made by Morgan Creek Productions and released domestically by Universal Pictures.
The film's protagonist is a small-town guy who lands a mailroom job at a New York cosmetics firm, only to be fired on his first day after telling the owners his honest opinion about their spokesmodel. His chance at redemption comes after snapping a camera phone shot of a beautiful girl on the subway and offering her as a replacement, but the foul-mouthed outer-borough beauty needs a lot more than makeup to become a palatable new face for the company.
Before earning two Emmys for "24," Surnow was the head writer on "Miami Vice," executive producer on "The Equalizer" and "La Femme Nikita" and a writer on more than a dozen series.
