A "Veronica Mars" update has been thrown in by series creator Rob Thomas. Having rejected the rumored plot that Kristen Bell's Veronica Mars may end up at the F.B.I. earlier, the 43-year-old told Entertainment Weekly that he is prepping to pitch the feature film project to Warner Bros. and producer Joel Silver.

"I'm preparing the pitch now - literally now," Thomas revealed his plan on Monday, February 9. "I hope to go in and talk to [executive producer] Joel Silver and [Warner Bros.] in the next week or two to see if they're interested."

Screenwriter Rob Thomas has stayed true to his words on the big screen treatment for "Veronica Mars". Having claimed earlier that he will develop the series for a movie as soon as he has time, the "Cupid" creator confirmed to iF Magazine that he is working on the film project now that his new series order has been reduced.

"That means I have time to write the VERONICA MARS movie," he said explaining the advantage of the cut down of the series order. "But my writing the movie is half the battle. Someone else has to pay for it. Joel Silver does have a certain pile of money. He called on me saying 'Can we do this now?' Kristen [Bell] wants to do it. Joel wants to do it and I want to do it. For me, that's the next project."
