EXCLUSIVE: On the eve of the opening of the American Film Market, Deadline hears another hot package has come together that will have Ron Howard directing and producing through Imagine Origin of Species, a true crime thriller scripted by Noah Pink.

Worldwide rights will be handled by CAA Media Finance, and the project is out in the market just now.

Howard is represented by CAA; Pink by Gersh.
