According to The Hollywood Reporter the studio has bought an untitled pitch about the end of the world with Wiseman in talks to direct and produce [and] is seeking writers. The project is based on an original idea about a group of people who survive the end of the world and the mystery surrounding how they got to that position.
Oddly enough, although THR’s story says the film-to-be is “untitled”, their headline gave it one … Nocturne. So, until we hear otherwise, that’s how we’ll refer to it as well.
As for Wiseman’s slate, he’s attached to two other pics currently, both of which are military/action oriented — Atlantis Rising and Shrapnel — but neither has a solid green light. And of course there’s always the rumored Underworld 4 so who knows where Nocturne might fit into his plans. But we’re definitely intrigued … mostly because of three little words: “an original idea“.
Keep it here for more on this one as it comes.
