Aline Brosh McKenna has been stocking up on the Purell. The "27 Dresses" screenwriter is penning "
We Bought a Zoo" for Fox. The studio picked up the rights to Benjamin Mee's memoir in February for former Firm exec Julie Yorn to produce.
Mee's book, published in September by Weinstein Books, tells of how he, his cancer-stricken wife and their kids purchased a rundown zoo in the English countryside along with its 200 exotic animals and rehabilitated them.
