‘Jurassic World’ Director to Helm Sci-Fi Thriller ‘Intelligent Life’; Steven Spielberg Producing
THR reports that DreamWorks has picked up the science fiction thriller Intelligent Life, written by Trevorrow and Connolly (who also co-penned the Jurassic World script). Trevorrow is attached to direct, while Jurassic World producers Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall are once again going to be onboard as the money-men behind the film.
Details about the story are being kept under wraps, but the project is said to be based on an early script draft for a project that Trevorrow and Connolly developed some time back, then called The Ambassador. A low-budget sci-fi thriller, Ambassador reportedly followed a U.N. worker, whose job is to represent mankind in the event of alien contact – something that proves to be problematic, when he falls in love with a mysterious woman who then turns out to be an extraterrestrial.
