Currently we know that Dave Wilson will be making his feature directorial debut in this film. It is expected to be an R-rated film that is supposed to be highly influenced by high concept sci-fi blockbusters of the late 80’s like Robocop. The film’s script was written by Oscar nominated Eric Heisserer, who also wrote comic books for Valiant for a brief period of time. Production is starting in Cape Town, South Africa.
