Film-making is a long process.  The first draft is in, I'm currently revising
it for a second draft.  If all continues to go well, and so far it's gone very
well, we could film this sometime in the fall or spring of next year, so it
could conceivably be in theaters by next fall/winter.  Assuming nothing
glitches along the way, and you always have to assume those things.

It's still in the works.
