Morgan Spurlock's (Super Size Me) Warrior Poets has acquired rights to the biography Can I Go Now?: The Life of Sue Mengers, Hollywood's Superagent by Brian Kellow biography. Deadline reported that Spurlock, who will direct, write a script and co-produce, "hopes to have a script by the fall and then will put the movie together quickly."

"I'm a fan of big personalities, great characters, and she is both," he said. "More than that, I love people who buck the trend and do things that haven't been done before and go into spaces unheard of, whether it be of gender or race. Sue Mengers took over the boys club of Hollywood and did something groundbreaking. She proved not only that she could be part of this world; she dominated it in a way that hadn't been done before, especially by someone so brash and outspoken and as charismatic as she was. She was almost like a breath of fresh air in Hollywood at the time, the one person who would tell you the truth, whether you liked it or not, it got her a lot of really loyal clients and carried her through the high points of her career."
