Los Angeles, March 28: Screenwriter Simon Beaufoy, who won the Academy Award for ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, is working on the script for DreamWorks Animation`s ‘Truckers’.
The project is in the early development stages, and nothing is yet known about the story line.
Recent blog-fanned rumors that Beaufoy had been hired to write "Wolverine 2" were unfounded.
The animation process is drawn out for writers and involves years of give and take with storyboard artists, animators and executives as they provide input and create scenes. But Beaufoy isn`t the first scribe to take the gold and dive right into animation: Michael Arndt, who won the original screenplay Oscar for 2006`s "Little Miss Sunshine," packed his bags for Pixar to work on the script for the forthcoming "Toy Story 3" after winning his statuette.
