Warners Wants Brad Pitt for Doug Liman’s ALL YOU NEED IS KILL
Old news is good news: Warner Bros has bought a script based on an original novel from Japan – Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s All You Need is Kill, which was first published in 2004; a science-fiction manga that garnered a lot of praises.
The story is told from the first person point of view of the central character Keiji Kiriya. Keiji is a new recruit in the United Defense Force, which fights against the mysterious creatures called ‘Mimics’ which have besieged the Earth. Keiji is killed on his first raid, but through some mysterious occurrence wakes up having returned to the day before the battle, only to find himself caught in a time loop as his death and rebirth reliving the same day over and over.
Writer Dante Harper was brought in to write the script. Also, The Bourne Identity director Doug Liman was later confirmed to direct the movie, especially after Liman’s former project Luna, was canceled by Paramount Pictures.
Well, ladies and gentlemen, how about, we have Brad Pitt starring in that alien invasion flick: that’s the news!
But time will tell if the star of Moneyball would take a risk to embody some anima hero or he would be rather chose to star in David O. Russell’s The Mission, ‘a Peter Landesman script about a U.S. Navy Seal’s six-year-long rescue effort to free fifteen U.S. hostages from FARC rebels.’
What do you vote for? Honestly, I’m speechless.
