- Warner Bros. Pictures tapped Danya Jimenez and Hannah McMechan to write the screenplay for Tim Burton's remake of Attack of the 50 Foot Woman , a reimagining of the cult sci-fi film about a giant heiress.
- After KPop Demon Hunters became Netflix's most-watched film, Danya Jimenez and Hannah McMechan were named to Variety's 10 Screenwriters to Watch for 2025 alongside co-director Maggie Kang.
- Margot Robbie's LuckyChap is producing the remake with Morgan Begg overseeing development, while Gillian Flynn wrote an earlier draft and Kai Dolbashian serves as executive producer.
- Currently, the two are taking out their original series A Really Bad Person with Legendary producing while writing Brothers for Apple TV and serving as staff writers on the Ren & Stimpy reboot.
- Taking on this B-movie positions the writers with major IP, as the 1958 original was produced on a shoestring 88,000 budget and remains a cult sci-fi classic.
