According to The Hollywood Reporter, Emmy Award nominated actress and director Elizabeth Banks (Pitch Perfect) is currently in the process of developing a new film adaptation based on National Geographic’s 2018 documentary titled Science Fair.
Through her Brownstone Production, Banks will be teaming up with Universal Pictures to co-produce the film.
Science Fair follows the story of nine high school students from around the globe as they navigate rivalries, setbacks and, of course, hormones, on their journey to compete at The International Science and Engineering Fair or ISEF.
More than a thousand of the smartest and quirkiest teens from over 78 different countries face off with only one destined to be named Best in Fair.
