Why do people write entire screenplays without even bothering to check if it's something they could film?!
Ask for apologies, not permission.
Golden rule of gettin' shit done baby.

I think this sort of thing happens more frequently than you might think. I'm assuming it follows the "Build it and they will come" philosophy. A quote from the article suggests that a fair few sequel scripts for Wonderful Life have been kicking about for years.
Also, in this day of the internet, many announcements probably come way too soon. I imagine 'talking to Paramount' was next on their list, but Variety probably got wind of their intentions.
Somewhere, I have three unshot screenplays that were going to be independent films. Since they were essentially free to make, it meant all volunteer work. So, never happened.
I'm sure some people write screenplays just because they can. Like a hobby or something.
Awesome. Draconian copyright laws that allow film rights to remain held for 70+ years win again!
Extra funny considering the movie spent like three decades in the public domain, which is the only reason it's popular.
