It seems like there are a handful of different projects in the works from various different studios about the mysterious Bermuda Triangle, one of which Sam Raimi became attached to earlier this year. We have no idea what the status of that one is, but we’ve just learned Universal is prepping their own.
Via THR today, “Mr. Robot” creator Sam Esmail will write and direct an untitled Bermuda Triangle film for Universal. Previous iterations of the film were penned by Miles Millar & Alfred Gough, and Juliet Snowden & Stiles White.
The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is the area that stretches between the Florida Straits, Bermuda and Puerto Rico. Over the years, several ships and planes have disappeared while in the area under mysterious circumstances. Theories centered on paranormal or extraterrestrial causes have long swirled around these strange disappearances.
Dylan Clark is producing for his Universal-based Dylan Clark Productions, along with Esmail and Chad Hamilton for their Esmail Corp. Millar and Gough will executive produce.
