Warner Bros. Pictures have picked up the rights to an original, as-yet-untitled, film penned by Josh Zetumer.
Zetumer previously wrote an instalment of the Bourne trilogy, as well as the upcoming comic-book adaptation Dune.
Details for the story are currently being kept under wraps, but one studio insider has described the film by saying, “You can’t put it in a box,” possibly suggesting that it’s a grounded tale, with several genre overtones.
Ruben Fleischer – who is currently directing 30 Minutes or Less, starring Jesse Eisenberg, Danny McBride and Aziz Ansari – will serve as executive producer, while Guymon Casady and Darin Friedman of Management 360 will produce.
The Hollywood Reporter scooped this one.
We’ll be sure to keep you updated as and when more details become available.
