Warner Bros. Finds The Days Before

Now this baby sounds like it’s going to be confusing; one of those time travel movies that takes a lot of pre-thought before pen can even be put to paper. Variety got word that Warner Bros. has picked up an alien apocalypse script from Chad St. John called The Days Before, and it sounds too cool to ignore.

The tale centers on a race of aliens invading Earth who want us all dead. Instead of just coming down and shooting up our buildings, however, they time travel backwards, yesterday by yesterday, slowly erasing any trace of humanity. One man is able to stay a yesterday ahead of them and tries to convince everyone that the end is coming ... or already has come ... or something like that.

See, two paragraphs in and I’m already confused. We’ll keep an eye on this one to see how it develops and maybe it will all be clearer down the road. Or perhaps it’s already clear and it just hasn’t caught up with me yet? Whoa ... I need to stop.
