If you haven’t heard of the Jonas Brothers, then you’ve been on a dessert island with your head in the sand for quite some time.
These brothers are wildly popular through the boy band’s appearances playing music and acting in such Disney Channel programs like Camp Rock. They even hung out with Miley Cyrus on Hanna Montana. Frankie – known as the bonus Jonas – has also gained a profile appearing with his brothers.
The title character in the “Walter” books is a fat dog with severe flatulence. The brothers play musicians whose parents are asked to care for the dog by an aunt just before she passes away, reports Variety.
While his brothers play music, Frankie and the gaseous hound get involved in a plot that involves liberating a koi fish and thwarting jewel thieves.
And, of course, Fox predicts franchise

Nicole Kidman is attached to star in The Eighth Wonder, a pitch from Simon Kimberg that is an action adventure.
Overall details are hush-hush; however, the story focuses on an archaeological discovery that sets off a globle-spanning race.
Apparently, Kimberg is trying to achieve a movie that will be to Raider of the Lost Ark what the Bourne movies are to James Bond movies — you do the math–.
Put two and two together, a character driven, treasure-hunting thriller.
Kidman and Kimberg set sights on working together for some time; since Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which Kimberg wrote.
Kimberg will write Eighth Wonder this fall.
20th Century has picked it up.
