Bateman And Kidman Share "The Family Fang"

Jason Bateman will both star with and direct Nicole Kidman in the film adaptation of author Kevin Wilson's novel "The Family Fang" says Deadline.


The story follows a couple of performance artists who routinely sucked their kids into taking part in a variety of bizarre events. When the resentful fully grown children return home, they are unwittingly enlisted to help in the execution of a daring and mysterious final performance by their parents.

David Lindsay-Abaire is writing the adapted script

Kidman, Leslie Urdang, Per Saari and Dean Vanech will produce.

Production will take place sometime next year.

Bateman made his directorial debut on the comedy "Bad Words" which bowed at the Toronto International Film Festival ahead of a release early next year.
