Gyllenhaal Film Gets a Writer

by Jane Boursaw on June 9th, 2008

Has it been a while since we’ve had a good space flick? Seems like it has.

Up-and-coming scribe Dan Mazeau has been hired to redraft the Dreamworks film about lunar colonization. Jake Gyllenhaal has signed to star.

Doug Liman, who’ll direct the untitled moon film, wrote an original screenplay with John Hamburg (Along Came Polly). Black Hawk Down author Mark Bowden revamped that script.

Gyllenhaal recently closed a deal to star in the Disney video game adaptation Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

Mazeau recently turned in his latest draft of Jonny Quest, a live-action adventure based on the animated ’60s Hanna-Barbera TV show created by Doug Wildey.

It’s an interesting mix, because Liman has directed some pretty cool movies, including Mr. and Mrs. Smith, The Bourne Ultimatum and Supremacy, and Jumper.
