Leitch and Kelly McCormick will produce the project via their company 87North along with Antoine Fuqua (The Magnificent Seven, Training Day, The Equalizer) and Kat Samick (The Equalizer, Southpaw, Infinite).
Plot details for the film are currently being kept under wraps, but it is based on the Japanese novel Maria Beetle by Isaka Kotaro.
It’s been a couple of weeks since we last heard word of casting news in David Leitch’s star-studded action thriller Bullet Train and now he’s back at it again as Latin Grammy winner Bad Bunny has signed on to join the ensemble, according to Deadline.
On top of directing, Leitch will supervise the script written by Zak Olkewicz (Fear Street).
