Stuart Beattie was waiting tables when he ran into friend Julie Richardson, whom he'd met in a U.C.L.A. Screenwriting Extension course. Richardson had become a producer on the lookout for good thriller scripts in particular. Beattie pitched her his screenplay "The Last Domino", and she liked it. Her boss, Frank Darabont, also liked it, and set up a meeting with HBO. They passed on the project after Beattie submitted another draft. He then begged his agent to set up a meeting at DreamWorks, where executive Marc Haines read the script over a weekend. The studio bought the screenplay the following week.
