Michael B. Jordan is now set to star in the long-developing thriller Methuselah, according to Deadline.
The film would take its name from the Biblical character Methuselah, who was said to have lived over 900 years.
His production company Outlier Society will be producing a “creature feature” set in Detroit, Michigan directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts, the filmmaker behind Kong: Skull Island.
An undeniable rising star like Jordan may indeed be enough to finally get this project out of development purgatory and into production.
