Producer Fred T. Gallo and director Mark W. Travis (making his feature debut) have recruited their cast for “DIVE!” a comedy about a submarine, which will film this month.

The film’s writers, Darryl Zarubica and Randolph Davis, will executive produce and co-produce respectively. The Substandard Production--pun intended--will be released by Warner.

Richard Greico of Fox Broadcasting’s “Booker” jumps to the big screen to star in “If Looks Could Kill,” described as a youth version of a Bond movie.

Warner Bros. will distribute.

The Mouth is back: Morton Downey Jr. plays a man-on-the- street video journalist in 20th Century Fox’s “Predator 2,” which stars Danny Glover, Gary Busey, Maria Conchita Alonso, Ruben Blades, Kevin Peter Hall and Bill Paxton. Shooting begins Feb. 20 in Los Angeles with Stephen Hopkins directing.

In “Wit’s End,” producer Renee Missel and director Michael Ritchie plan an update and gender change on the 1953 British comedy, “The Captain’s Paradise.” Instead of a ferry captain alternating nights between wives in Gibraltar and Morocco, their heroine is torn between a lover in Laredo, Tex., and a husband in Mexico--who has faked his death in an insurance fraud scheme. The romantic comedy, written by Jim Hicks (“The Morning After”), will film on location this fall for Sanddollar Prods. and Orion.

Julie Carmen (“Milagro Beanfield War”) will play the female lead in Directions International’s “Miracle At Sea,” the true-life account of five Costa Rican fishermen lost at sea for 142 days. Production is slated for spring, 1991.
