We first told you about Ruairi Robinson’s new monster flick The Leviathan a few days ago, and now Variety is reporting that Twentieth Century Fox has picked up the sci-fi spec with Simon Kinberg on board to produce and Neill Blomkamp exec producing.
The idea comes from the Irish filmmaker, who is also attached to direct, with Fight Club screenwriter Jim Uhls penning the script. Aditya Sood is joining Kinberg and Robinson as producers.
In the film, mankind has colonized many worlds in a time when travel faster than the speed of light has been made possible by the harvesting of exotic matter from the eggs of the largest species mankind has ever seen. The catch? Those who take part in the hunt for the matter are mostly involuntary labor.
