Sony has recently acquired two action-oriented spec scripts. Here they are at a glance:

• First up from The Amazing Spider-Man scribe, James Vanderbilt, comes White House Down, an actioner that is said to be a combination of Die Hard and Air Force One.
• Secondly, Sony acquired The Royal Honours Society, a literary-themed action-adventure from Ernest Lupinacci. The plot concerns the adventures of some of England’s greatest authors of the late 19th century.
