My U.K. producer and I, the screenwriter, are wishlisting directors for a True Story about a New England family losing a child, then rescuing one in the Himalayas. The screenplay is ready to read. I am part of the story.

Thanks Maurice - to be clear, I'm not looking for a director, just suggestions from other writers and other smart film people who they think might be a good fit.

I assume $60M is not low-budget. Not high, but at least mid-range. Depending on the director and lead it could go higher.

It will be a major commercial motion picture quite possibly with an A-list lead,

Jonathan Herrick if you haven't already, I'd suggest checking out Jim Issa. He's a great guy and a great director. Very collaborative and truly understands storytelling. I've worked with him on several commercial projects, and we've collaborated on script development for a few features. If you contact him, you can mention my name and that I recommended him. http://www.jimissa.com/about-jimissa
Good luck with your film!
Sounds amazing Jonathan Herrick and you may want to put this on the jobs section, best of luck.
