Curtis Hanson in Talks to Direct ‘Gemini Man’

Curtis Hanson, the director behind such great movies as ‘L.A. Confidential’ and ‘Wonder Boys’, is in negotiations to take on directing duties on the Jerry Bruckheimer-produced ‘Gemini Man’.

The screenplay by David Benioff (’25th Hour’ and ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’) is about an aging NSA agent who wants to retire.   This, however, puts him on a death list.   The assassin who sets out to take him out?   A younger, cloned version of the agent himself.

Several writers worked on the script over the years, including Jonathan Hensleigh, who collaborated with Bruckheimer on ‘Con Air’, ‘Armageddon’ and ‘Gone in Sixty Seconds’.
