The spec script was written by Damon Lindelof and Nick Cuse, who were co-creators of Lost and HBO’s The Leftovers.
Cuse and Zobel will be executive produce alongside Jason Blum. Universal’s executive vice president of production Erik Baiers and vice president of production Jay Polidoro will oversee production for the studio.
This will have him teaming up again with previous The Leftovers collaborators Lindelof and Cuse.
Universal-based Jason Blum will produce the film for his Blumhouse Productions.
