Juan Antonio Bayona impressed many with The Orphanage and that’s continued with his recent tsunami based movie, The Impossible. However there was a five year gap between those film, and it seems he’s keen to ensure it’s not as long again until his next movie.
Variety reports that he’s now come onboard a currently untitled sci-fi movie, based on a script by Eric Roth. Nothing is known about the plot, but we might get some hint from the fact Roth has previously written the likes of Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close, Forrest Gump, The Insider, Benjamin Button, Munich and Ali.
Kevin McCormick (Gangster Squad, The Lucky One) is producing. There’s no hint as to when this might go into production.
