The project eyed to become a potential franchise, 20th Century Fox has today set director Carlos Saldanha to helm
Shadows.
The Hollywood Reporter has the news, bringing word that the original feature will mark the live-action debut of the
Rio director, who will base the feature on a pitch from
Black List screenwriter Jason Micallef.
Said to combine live action with CGI monsters,
Shadows is set in the world of cryptozoology, the study of mythic and legendary creatures such as Bigfoot, the Yeti and the Loch Ness Monster. Micallef was,
some years ago, developing a cryptozoology themed project with the Universal-based Illumination Entertainment with Jack Black attached to produce. Whether or not this is some variation of that same project is unclear. The story in
Shadows is said to have been mapped out as a trilogy, however.
