Writer-director Kiran Ramchandran has closed a deal with Fox Searchlight Pictures to write and direct the feature Kid Bang, sources said. The project marks the first short film to be culled from Searchlight's filmmaker incubator Fox Searchlab and put on a fast track to turn into a full-length feature. Bang is described as Moulin Rouge meets 8 Mile, centering on the world of underground dance competitions. There is no start date yet on the project, though Searchlight is said to be keen on making the film in the near future once the script is approved.
