23 Jump Street in development at Sony

23 Jump Street is in development at Sony – this in spite of the mockery which Phil Lord and Christopher Miller included at the end of 22 Jump Street for a seemingly limitless number of sequels. Deadline reports that Sony and Original Film have employed Rodney Rothman, who was a co-writer for 22 Jump Street to write the screenplay. Whether Phil Lord and Chris Miller will return as directors in unclear, however they are overseeing the screenplay, and will produce 23 Jump Street alongside Neal Moritz, Channing Tatum, and Jonah Hill.
