Variety is reporting that Norwegian director Andre Ovredal (Troll Hunter) has signed on to helm the sci-fi thriller Emergence, which is being produced by StarStream and XYZ Films.
Written by Rowan O’Neill and Jonathan auf der Heide from a story by O’Neill and Chris Kunzmann, the story “follows a mining crew working on a distant moon that faces a frantic struggle for survival when a rogue terraforming organism is accidentally released on the surface, spreading like wildfire as it consumes anything in its path.”
Production on Emergence is expecting to get underway soon.
