"13 Reasons Why" creator Brian Yorkey will produce the feature "Catching Out" for HBO Max.
According to Deadline, the upcoming streaming service from WarnerMedia acquired the film's pitch after a round of competitive bidding.
Nic Sheff, who previously worked as a writer and story editor on Netflix series "13 Reasons Why", will write the script.
The story is described as a drama that is an exploration of a "youth subculture".
Yorkey will produce the project alongside Brad Weston of Makeready.
Jeff Sommerville and Kat Ramberg will serve as executive producers with Makeready's Negin Salmasi as co-producer.
