That writer is Scott Silver. Are you asking who is Scott Silver? You’re not alone. Silver is probably best known for penning 8 MILE. He also co-wrote and directed THE MOD SQUAD as well as both writing and directing JOHNS. And… that’s it. So you think Silver is the best guy to re-write a script about an alien invasion pulverizing its way across L.A.? Yeah. Me either. But hell… I’ll give the guy a shot.
THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE BEGINNING’s Jonathan Liebesman is set to direct with the great Aaron Eckhart (above) already pegged to star as a Marine platoon commander. That’s all we’ve got thus far. So here’s hoping Silver hammers out a heck of a script! Keep it here for updates as we keep track of BATTLE: LOS ANGELES.
