Juan Antonio Bayona, who recently directed the tsunami drama THE IMPOSSIBLE, and before that the Guillero del Toro-produced THE ORPHANAGE, has lined up his latest project: an unitlted sci-fi epic, which will be produced by Warner Bros.

Unfortunately, we don’t know anything about the plot; WB is keeping that sucker under wraps. What is clear is that it was written by Eric Roth, the Oscar-winning scribe of FORREST GUMP and MUNICH, and that GANGSTER SQUAD producer Will McCormick is overseeing the pic.
