Vin Diesel... Is... Not The Wheelman

My Wheelman, that is. Instead, as this item at Ain't It Cool News reveals, there's an action movie/video game called The Wheelman in the works. Far as I know, it's a completely different story:

The plot of the flick being developed for MTV Films and Paramount centers around an expert driver who comes out of retirement to protect a woman from his past.

Not sure how I feel about this. My book was optioned by director Simon Hynd and Plum Films about a year ago; if our project makes it into production, we'll have to change the name, at the very least. And what if Vin Diesel's Wheelman blows? Would that kill any future movies about getaway drivers (namely, um, mine)?

Then again, the optimist in me thinks: Hey, maybe it'll translate into some accidental book sales, thanks to confused Vin Diesel fans. (And let's face it: if you're a Vin Diesel fan, it's a safe bet that you are confused.)

Thanks to Dave White for the tip.
