Clashing husband-and-wife inventors of a new process to design life-saving drugs need to settle their differences in time to fight off a global corporation using espionage tactics to bury an invention that will save millions of lives.

Amidst a bitter divorce fight, husband and wife scientists must bury their hatchets to fight off a corporate conspiracy to block their invention that will save millions of lives.
Rather than “clashing”, why not ratchet up the conflict to bitterly divorcing (or even bitterly divorced) to complicate (which is to say make more interesting) the relationship they will need to build to fend off the conspiracy?

Is the life saving process the husband and wife invented the same as or necessary for the technology the corporation wants to bury? Or is the "process" something else altogether different and unrelated to the "technology"?

Disney (through their subsidiary Touchstone) was one of 4 production companies and 6 producers (including Steven Spielberg) involved in the making of “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”.
They had to pay for rights to characters from Warner Brothers ( Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and other Looney Tune characters), Universal Studios (for Woody Woodpecker) and Paramount (Betty Boop). And, of course, all of them insisted on seeing –and agreeing — to the script, how their characters were going to be portrayed.
(This is where having Steven Spielberg attached to the project was important: he was someone with the prestige, connections and clout to get deals done for the character rights.)
My takeaway is: you would have no creative control in how you want to recycle these characters for your story. So…
>>Maybe I?ll transpose it with no reference to Roger Rabbit? and Back to the Future?. I?ll find something else.
Why not? You then have complete creative control. You can start your own family of franchise characters. That’s where the money is — franchising and merchandising rights.
Such was the foundation for George Lucas’s fortune. 20th Century Fox negotiated hard, paid George Lucas little for the script of Star Wars and the fee to direct it. But they let him have all the merchandising rights. They didn’t imagine the toy market for the characters and props.
Huge mistake.
