Eric Roth ("The Curious Case of Benjamin Button") says that he's keen on doing a big sci-fi feature in the future.
"Im going to do a big space I dont want to say odyssey thats been done, but a space movie for Warner Brothers and I want to start like in I dont know sometime next year" he tells Collider.
Roth says its an original ideas of his and wants to mix "the intelligence of 2001 and the mythology of Star Wars...I dont want to make it so intellectual that its confounding, but on the other hand Im not so sure I can write the kind of wonderful fantasy that Lucas does."
Of course it's not a sure thing just yet - "I think it will be great. I have an idea. Its a terrific idea, I know that. Whether Im able to be able to do it, I dont know."
Roth just finished a script for "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close", is about to rewrite "Hatfield/McCoys" for Plan B, and is slated to adapt Erik Larson's novel "The Devil in the White City".
