It looks like the Technotise teaser trailer by Jaron Pitts has caught the attention of screenwriter and Avatar producer Laeta Kalogridis. The teaser was commissioned by Scott Glassgold who holds the film rights and wanted to gain interest for it's development. It seems to have worked as Laeta Kalogridis had been pitching the project to prospective studios. HeatVision reports that Legendary Pictures has picked up the pitch and Laeta will write the screenplay. The teaser was edited together with existing footage from films like Resident Evil and The Island along with added digital effects.
Laeta Kalogridis is no stranger to comics and anime she wrote early drafts for both X-Men and Wonder Woman. She is also currently developing scripts for Battle Angel Alita and Ghost In The Shell. Kalogridis worked in the horror/thriller genre as well writing the adapted screenplay for Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island. It will be interesting who they'll hire to direct the film considering the big names Kalogridis has worked with previously.
