As reported by the Lights Out Entertainment movie website:

"Men Don't Quit: According to Variety, New Line Cinema has acquired the William Tepper script Men Don't Quit with visions of pairing "Everybody Loves Raymond" star Ray Romano with "King of Queens" star Kevin James to topline.

James is committed to making the film. While Romano has been involved in script development and the selection of a director, his camp asserts he won't make a deal until all the elements are in place.

Romano and James, who are pals from the standup comedy circuit, will play friends who team as door-to-door salesman of bulk quantities of frozen meat. The boys are in a slump, and if they don't move some beef on this particular day, they're dead meat."

With Leah Remini having done 'Old School', it looks like Kevin James will try his hand at the big screen as well!

It's a pretty basic description of the movie so yeah it doesn't sound too great.

But if you read just the basic description of the King of Queens series, it wouldn't sound that great either.

Here's another movie newsflash:

"Kevin James is in talks to take a lead role in the Will Smith romantic comedy, Last First Kiss, at Columbia Pictures.

James would play Albert, the primary client of a date doctor (Smith) who claims his service can match folks for life in just three dates. A female journalist (Eva Mendes) enlists in the program, intent on exposing the doc as a scam artist."

I also hear Old School 2 is in the works so hopefully we's get to see Leah on the big screen too!
