By Matt Grobar

The Worst Man, an action comedy spec from Matt Altman (Red Widow) and Dave Matalon (Totally Killer), has landed at Universal Pictures, with 87North set to produce.

Plot details are under wraps. This marks the second spec sale in less than a year for Altman and Matalon, who set up the action comedy Three Hitmen and a Baby at Lionsgate, as we were first to tell you. 87North, the company behind actioners like The Fall Guy, Bullet Train, Nobody and Violent Night, is also aboard to produce that one.
