Although no plot specifics for Intelligent Life have yet been revealed, The Ambassador was set to follow a UN worker hired to represent humankind for the chance of alien contact who ends up falling in love with an alien.
First announced last year, Intelligent Life boasts a screenplay by the Jurassic World pair of Colin Trevorrow and Derek Connolly.
Frank Marshall will produce Intelligent Life alongside Trevorrow and Big Beach Films, who produced Trevorrow and Connolly’s indie hit Safety Not Guaranteed.
Back in February, it was reported that Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong’o (12 Years a Slave, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, The Jungle Book) might team with Selma director Ava DuVernay for Amblin Entertainment and DreamWorks Pictures’ science fiction feature Intelligent Life.
