2929 Productions has announced, via The Hollywood Reporter, that it is in final negotiations for Stockwell to direct Villains from a script by Joshua Zetumer. Villains will take place in that most unwelcoming of locales, the frozen wastelands of the Pacific Northwest, telling the tale of a forest fire spotter with a secret who receives an unexpected visit from his crazy brother.
That could lead to all sorts of interesting scenarios, but we’ll leave it up to the screenwriter and director to let it be told the way they see it needs to be. Assuming all goes well, Villains looks to roll by the first of the year.
