Paramount studio to make "Black Flies"

Paramount Pictures has started swatting at Flies. The studio has made a pre-emptive strike and purchased the unpublished Shannon Burke novel Black Flies, based on her experiences as an EMT in Harlem. In addition, according to Daily Variety, the studio has now started negotiations with helmer Darren Aronofsky, who recently completed the Hugh Jackman-starring The Fountain, to take the director's chair on the project.

Black Flies centers on a young man who takes a job as an emergency medical technician on his path to entering medical school. While on the beat, he comes across an array of crises and misadventures. He also becomes close with his mentor, a veteran EMT who has become so numbed to the job that, when a life-or-death situation arises, the mentor ultimately makes the wrong decision.
