New Line has acquired horror-comedy The Parenting, written by Saturday Night Live co-head writer Kent Sublette. The film, which is being compared to Meet the Parents, is said to put an LGBT twist on the genre with a story focused on “a couple who engage in the time-honored, and fraught-filled, ritual of encountering a significant other’s parents.” (The Hollywood Reporter). Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins) is in discussions to direct.
