June 22, 2018 by Gary Collinson

It looks like George Clooney is gearing up to get back behind the camera, as Deadline is reporting that he is in talks to direct the sci-fi film Echo for 20th Century Fox.

Echo is being produced y Shawn Levy’s 21 Laps from a script by Christopher MacBride (The Conspiracy, The Education of Fredrick Fitzell). Described as a thriller with a sci-fi edge, the project follows a drone specialist who has a psychological crisis: is he paranoid in suspecting his lover is not who she appears to be, and could she possibly have been replaced?
