Men in Black with fairy tales
Synopsis:
The Gingerbread Man prepares cookie batter and adds mind-control liquid to it. An agent posing as his henchwoman finds out his plan to take over the world using mind-control cookies, and she reports it to the Department of Fairy Tales, a secret government agency that pursues fairy tale criminals and keeps the existence of fairy tale characters a secret.
At the agency, a lone agent named Solo thinks about a teenager who the Big Bad Wolf ate during a mission. Solo’s first partner, Jack, arrives at her office. They get their mission: catch the Gingerbread Man so he can’t ship the mind-control cookies.
The Gingerbread Man and his henchman package cookies. The agents show up, disguised as delivery workers. Jack tells Solo he has a plan to catch the Gingerbread Man, but Solo freezes Jack so he can’t get involved.
Solo tries to catch the Gingerbread Man, but he has super speed. She decides to work as a team, and the agents catch the Gingerbread Man. The agents find out a boy was watching the entire time. Solo gives him candy that erases his memory.
Solo, Jack, and a tiny agent named Big get the next target: Big Bad Wolf.
Potential: Feature script(s) and/or a series. Live-action or animated. I’m pitching the short script in hopes that a producer, director, company, or actor buys the rights and turns it into a feature or show.
