Ken Kwapis is in final negotiations to direct "
Everybody Loves Whales," an environmental family film project being produced by Anonymous Content's Steve Golin and Michael Sugar.
The script tells the story of three California Gray Whales that were found trapped under the ice of the Arctic Circle in October 1988. The subsequent rescue attempt became a global event as scores of journalists converged on the nearby Eskimo town of Barrow, Alaska, and the U.S. and Soviet governments enjoyed a rare moment of collaboration.
