Da Vinci Code Sequel Has A (Rich) Writer

If you're still wondering what the right career to pursue is, here's another indication that you should probably be thinking about writing mediocre screenplays. Dark Horizons is reporting that some dude has been paid around $4 million to write the upcoming sequel to The Da Vinci Code:

"Talk about your cushy gig - scribe Akiva Goldsman has been offered US$4 million to write the screen version of "Da Vinci Code" author Dan Brown's "Angels & Demons".

The deal is apparently the largest amount of money offered upfront to a screenwriter solely for a script."

It's good that Goldsman is being given this much money, because at least we can all be assured that he can write the script ON FUCKING ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR BILLS.
