Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris Exit DreamWorks’ ‘The Good Luck Of Right Now’

Little Miss Sunshine directors Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris have exited the DreamWorks film The Good Luck Of Right Now. The Mike White-scripted adaptation of the novel by Silver Linings Playbook author Matthew Quick was moving into the casting stage, and I’ve heard creative disagreements between the directors and the film company over casting the ensemble prompted the exit yesterday. This is not good luck for DreamWorks, which is in flux as Stacey Snider prepares to exit for a job at Fox when her contract expires at year’s end.
