'Adjustment Bureau' Director Takes New Sci-Fi from 'Last Stand' Writer
21 January 2013 8:45 AM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
After being at the helm of the underrated sci-fi film The Adjustment Bureau, director George Nolfi is teaming with the writer behind Arnold Schwarzenegger's big screen comeback The Last Stand for a new sci-fi endeavor. Heat Vision reports Nolfi will direct a currently untitled project from Andrew Knauer, but the plot is currently being kept under wraps. As of now, the plan is for Nolfi to co-write the script with Knauer as well as produce. In case you're wondering how this pairing came together, Nolfi actually did some rewrites on The Last Stand, but was impressed enough with the first draft that he wanted to collaborate. In a weird game of six degrees, Michael Hackett is also producing the film. Hackett produced Paycheck, which was based on a Philip K. Dick's short story, the author who wrote the short story on which The Adjustment Bureau was based. Nolfi »

'The Adjustment Bureau' Director George Nolfi Lines Up New Sci-Fi Project Penned By 'The Last Stand' Writer Andrew Knauer
18 January 2013 1:42 PM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
After doing some writing work on films like “Ocean’s Twelve” and “The Bourne Ultimatum,” George Nolfi finally made his directorial debut with 2011’s Matt Damon-starring sleeper hit “The Adjustment Bureau.” According to THR, that film’s studio, Universal, is looking to work with Nolfi again with another sci-fi film. The studio has picked up an untitled sci-fi action film that is being developed by Nolfi and “The Last Stand” writer Andrew Knauer with the duo looking to co-write the film together as a directorial vehicle for Nolfi. The two apparently met when Nofli did uncredited rewrite work on the Arnold Schwarzenegger film. And if Knauer's film seems slightly unfamiliar, he's certainly on the rise, and in fact the horror comedy "Ghost Team One" that he co-wrote, is set to premiere in at the Slamdance Film Festival which kicks off today. And in case you missed it, you can see our exclusive trailer. »

1.) Universal has picked up an untitled sci-fi project with The Adjustment Bureau helmer George Nolfi attached to direct, produce and co-write with The Last Stand writer Andrew Knauer. The Adjustment Bureau is one of my favorite movies of recent years so I've been anxiously waiting to see what Nolfi would do next and while I wish we had more information, the rest of the details are being kept under wraps. Nolfi and Knauer met while Nolfi was supervising the script for The Last Stand and was apparently so impressed with Knauer's script that he made a pitch to collaborate on this new untitled project. Before making his directorial debut with The Adjustment Bureau, Nolfi worked on the scripts for several movies including Ocean's Twelve and The Bourne Ultimatum. THR 2.) James Franco has been incredibly busy of late and will try to stay that way as he looks to direct and star in Beautiful People. »

The Last Stand – The Review
18 January 2013 6:00 AM, PST | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
Schwarzenegger is back, baby!
The Last Stand is the movie you didn’t even realize you wanted to see. With his return to motion picture stardom, after a decade of “favor to a friend” cameos in movies like The Rundown and The Expendables 1 and 2, this is the action superstar’s first leading role, having left acting to serve as the “Governator” of California, and while it may not have occurred to you to miss him during that time, it’s still surprisingly good to see him on the big screen again. Korean director Kim Jee-Woon’s, working from a script by Andrew Knauer, Jeffrey Nachmanoff and George Nolfi, keeps things moving quickly in his American film-making debut turns out to be an extremely Schwarzeneggerish Schwarzenegger film, full of big, violent set pieces and broad comedy. Now he’s not exactly pushing himself here and he may look a little out of it these days, »

The Last Stand Writer Teams With The Adjustment Bureau Director For New Sci-Fi Project
17 January 2013 8:43 PM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
It's still a mystery how Andrew Knauer's debut screenplay The Last Stand will do at the box office, but he's already wheeling and dealing in Hollywood and has just set up a new project at Universal. The writer has apparently been developing a science-fiction movie with The Adjustment Bureau director George Nolfi and now the two are set to make the film happen at the studio. The Hollywood Reporter shared the news about the project's forward motion but doesn't have much in the way of plot details. At this time "details are being kept close to the vest," though it is known that Knauer and Nolfi will be writing the script together and that Nolfi is eying it as a movie to both direct and produce as well. The two met while The Last Stand was still in pre-production and the director actually did a rewrite of the newcomer's work. »
Universal Picks Up High Concept Sci-Fi Action Project from The Adjustment Bureau Director George Nolfi
17 January 2013 7:16 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Universal picked up a sci-fi action script that The Adjustment Bureau director George Nolfi will co-wrote with Andrew Knauer. Nolfi and Knauer met while working on The Last Stand, Knauer's spec script that lured Arnold Schwarzenegger back to movies. Nolfi was hired to rewrite The Last Stand, and was impressed enough to recruit Knauer to collaborate on the "high concept" sci-fi actioner. Details beyond that description are unfortunately scarce, but THR confirms Nolfi is looking to direct and produce alongside Michael Hackett (Paycheck). I was really impressed with The Adjustment Bureau, especially since it was Nolfi's directorial debut after a decade as a writer on the likes of Ocean's Twelve and The Bourne Ultimatum. I am excited to see what Nolfi has to offer going forward. He has several chances to impress me lined up, including the Facebook thriller Xoxo (produced by Darren Aronofsky) and the Cuban missile crisis drama One Minute to Midnight. »
