Will Smith is looking to make his feature film directorial debut, and while many actors try something small and relatively easy (at least from a technical standpoint) to start with, Will is going for with an adaptation of the biblical Cain and Abel story, but with vampires mixed in.
The film is being set up at Sony Pictures through Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment. It won’t be Will Smith’s next project, and it is unclear if he will also appear in this tale of two brothers, one being the first human to ever be born, and the other the first human to die. When the project was initially announced, the script, by Dan Knauf and Smiths brother-in-law Caleb Pinkett, added in vampires to the traditional story.
It isn’t known when Smith might want to shoot the movie. (Source: Deadline)
