Welfare Queen writer Abdul Williams will write Lottery Ticket for Rogue Pictures. Music video director Erik White will helm the film produced by Evolution's Oren Koules and Mark Berg.

Rogue bought the urban comedy based on Williams' treatment. The story revolves around an 18-year-old living in the projects who must keep his winning lottery ticket a secret over a three day weekend. White, who grew up in the projects, said lottery tickets were a topic of endless discussion in his neighborhood.

"We were always wondering why some old guy in Utah who already had two houses was winning," White said. "This is all about the anticipation."

Premise: Nicholas Angel is the finest cop London has to offer, with an arrest record 400% higher than any other officer on the force. He's so good, he makes everyone else look bad. As a result, Angel's superiors send him to a place where his talents won't be quite so embarrassing -- the sleepy and seemingly crime-free village of Sandford. Once there, he is partnered with the well-meaning but overeager police officer Danny Butterman. The son of amiable Police Chief Frank Butterman, Danny is a huge action movie fan and believes his new big-city partner might just be a real-life "bad boy," and his chance to experience the life of gunfights and car chases he so longs for. Angel is quick to dismiss this as childish fantasy and Danny's puppy-like enthusiasm only adds to Angel's growing frustration. However, as a series of grisly accidents rocks the village, Angel is convinced that Sandford is not what it seems and as the intrigue deepens, Danny's dreams of explosive, high-octane, car-chasing, gunfighting, all-out action seem more and more like a reality. It's time for these small-town cops to break out some big-city justice.
