4 hours ago | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

McG has signed on to direct the languishing action adaptation Hunter Killer for Relativity Media. Antoine Fuqua and Gerard Butler were previously attached to direct and star, before they went on to make Olympus Has Fallen together.

The project is based on the novel Firing Point by Don Keith and George Wallace, which follows a new submarine captain who must work with a Navy Seal unit to rescue the Russian president, and stop a rogue Russian general from starting World War III.

Jamie Moss (Street Kings), Arne Schmidt (The Express), and John Kolvenbach wrote the adapted screenplay, with Neal H. Moritz and Toby Jaffe producing. No production schedule was given.

McG most recently directed This Means War for Fox and Three Days to Kill for Relativity Media.

5 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

The submarine thriller Hunter Killerhas been getting passed around in Hollywood for years now. For some time it looked as though Phillip Noyce would be handling the project, but after only a few months decided to drop it. Antoine Fuqua was the next name attached, but he decided to make the "Die Hard in the White House' thriller Olympus Has Fallen instead. The film has spent the last few months still stuck in development hell, but now it appears that it may have found a new director to take the wheel. Variety has learned that McG, known for movies like Terminator Salvation, Charlie's Angels, and This Means War, is now in talks to be the latest filmmaker to try and make Hunter Killer.

Update: The Wrap report that Martin Short and Jena Malone have also joined the cast. It's lost to the mists of time now, but when the project first emerged, there was talk that Reese Witherspoon was going to appear in Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master," as Peggy, the manipulative wife of Lancaster Dodd. For whatever reason (let's hope it wasn't a scheduling conflict with "This Means War"), it didn't come to pass (Amy Adams took the role), but it seems like Witherspoon and PTA are still mutual admirers, as Deadline bring news that the actress has just signed on to the director's new project, "Inherent Vice." The actress -- who's had a flurry of activity of late, after making tabloid headlines for her recent arrest -- joins Joaquin Phoenix, Benicio Del Toro, Owen Wilson and Kevin J Anderson as the signed cast so far.
