Jennifer Lopez Producing Live Action ‘Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?’. My Childhood Just Vomited.
Jennifer Lopez, best known in the Halls of my Memories for giving me newly-adolescent boners is taking on a more pristine memory, forged before I used to dry hump carpets: Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?
Walden Media, the team behind The Chronicles of Narnia series, has just purchased the rights to Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? Jennifer Lopez is attached, and though she seems perfect for the lead role, she’s reportedly only going to produce. The hope is that the film, based on a series of geography games that were adapted into a popular Nineties game show and later an animated cartoon, turns into a family adventure along the lines of National Treasure. Read more about the deal and listen to one of the best theme songs in television history after the jump.

Deadline broke the news of this deal and report the following as the logline:
When the ACME agency’s greatest detective Carmen Sandiego becomes the world’s greatest thief, it’s up to her former partner to follow her clues and track her down. Their cat and mouse game leads the partner to confront a greater mystery: is Carmen really a thief or a hero?
Weird as all Hell.
