Hobo With a Shotgun‘s Jason Eisener, who just came off working on Adam Wingard and Netflix’s Death Note, will next direct an untitled thriller for 20th Century Fox with Wes Ball’s Oddball Entertainment and Jeremy Platt’s Plattform producing, says Variety.
The film is inspired by Eisener’s “One Last Dive” short film (below), which he directed and co-wrote with Rob Cotterill and John Davies. The short centered on a diver investigating an underwater crime scene but remaining details about the feature film have yet to be released.
Besides directing Rutger Hauer in 2011’s Hobo with a Shotgun, Eisener’s credits include V/H/S/2 and The ABCs of Death.
Lewaa Nasserdeen (“The Real O’Neals,” “The Goldbergs”) is writing the script. Jason Young is overseeing the project for the studio.
