Director DJ Caruso (I Am Number Four, Eagle Eye) is reportedly signing on to direct an original sci-fi thriller called Invertigo, which was penned by Ehren Kruger (Transformers: Dark of the Moon) and Bradley Cramp (Lord of War) and will be produced by Neal Moritz (Total Recall, R.I.P.D.).
Deadline reports that Invertigo is a large scale project that has been fast-tracked by the studio about “A long lost NASA space probe mysterious crash lands in New York City, apparently under the influence of a “dark energy” force that drives the universe’s expansion. But the scientific curiosity soon becomes a disaster of cataclysmic proportions as Earth’s own gravity is disrupted and eventually reversed, causing skyscrapers and bridges to be ripped from the ground and rivers to rain from the sky. A team led by the Office of Emergency Management supervisor is forced to mount a desperate mission into upside-down Manhattan to avert the entire planet’s destruction.”
Invertigo is slated to hit theaters on March 7th, 2014.
