Variety is reporting that Greg Kinnear and Lauren Graham are set to star in Flash of Genius for producer turned first-time director Marc Abraham.

The Universal Pictures and Spyglass story was adapted by Phillip Railsback from a New Yorker article by John Seabrook. In the film Kinnear will star as Robert Kearns, the inventor of the intermittent windshield wiper, who spent most of his life battling the Detroit automakers he charged with stealing his invention. Graham, plays Phyllis Kearns, who watches her husband's obsession with legal retribution suffocate their marriage and put a strain on their children.

Kearns, who died two years ago, eventually got a multi-million dollar settlement.

Production begins in July in Toronto.
