Hawleys' 'Water' flows to Touchstone

'Dead' lives

Sheigh Crabtree and Borys Kit
Touchstone Pictures has purchased the spec script "Dead in the Water," to be produced by Damien Saccani's Cider Mill House Pictures.

The horror script, penned by twin brothers Noah and Alexi Hawley, follows a grieving couple as they go on a cruise in an attempt to reignite their marriage. When the ship rescues a man at sea, the couple becomes embroiled in a horrific nightmare.

Casey Wolfe will oversee it for the Walt Disney Co.

Cider Mill's Bridget Humphrey brought the project into the shingle.

Noah Hawley, repped by ICM, is a writer on Fox's "Bones," which received an early pickup for a second season. He also wrote "The Alibi," which will be released by TriStar. He also is a novelist.

Alexi Hawley wrote 2004's "Exorcist: The Beginning," directed by Renny Harlin. Other writing credits include "Interman" and "Bulldog Dance." He is repped by Innovative, Managemint and attorney Matt Johnson.

This is the brothers' first script together.
