One of the other movies that has moved forward through the massive writers room lead by Alex Kurtzman and Chris Morgan is Van Helsing, which will be written by Eric Heisserer (Arrival) and Jon Spaihts (Passengers).
Sometimes we’d talk about themes, and Jon and I just found ourselves kind of on the same page in terms of what we wanted to see Van Helsing explore.
It’s possible the Van Helsing could take one of these dates, but it isn’t clear who is directing this film yet, or who will star as the title character.
Eric Heisserer was asked if these writers had all come in with a specific franchise in mind they’d want to tackle.
