Greg Mottola, who ended a decade-long gap between feature directing gigs with "Superbad," is set to helm "
Adventureland" for Miramax and Sidney Kimmel.
Story, set in the summer of 1987, concerns an uptight recent college grad who's forced to take a minimum-wage job at the local amusement park after realizing he can't afford his dream European tour. The experience helps him to loosen up a bit as he finds first love, forms new friendships and matures just in time to enter the real world in the fall.
