We can’t get enough of the apocalypse, can we?

THE FALL is the latest film about the potential end of the world to come down the pike. At the moment it’s just a script, but it’s a script just acquired by QED International (DISTRICT 9, TEXAS KILLING FIELDS).

Christopher Cosmos, director of development at production company BenderSpink, wrote the script and Benderspink will, naturally, be on board the project. (I guess if you can’t find the right script to produce, you just gotta write it yourself!)

THE FALL is a modern take on The Odyssey, about a young man who makes his way cross country carrying with him the cure for a devastating plague. He’s hunted by men who want the cure for themselves.

Once this journey gets underway, we’ll update you.
