With a career spanning two and a half decades, Michael B. Jordan has become a big name in the industry. The actor has not only spearheade two franchises that are as popular as they are box-office hits, such as Creed and Black Panther, but he has also been involved in the production of several projects for both the big and small screen. We recently learned that he would be teaming up again with filmmaker Ryan Coogler for an upcoming vampire feature, and now it looks like he'll also be getting into the sci-fi realm with an upcoming adaptation of Philip K. Dick (renowned sci-fi author whose work inspired films like Blade Runner). According to a new report, Jordan will produce a new thriller titled T-Minus, through his company Outlier Society.
T-Minus will adapt Dick's 1974 science fiction short story A Little Something for Us Tempunauts. In that story, the Tempunauts, also known as U.S. time travelers, go into the future instead of a century, as planned. There they discover that their return from the future was fatal for them and they become trapped in a closed time loop. With this setback, the group must deliberate on whether or not to get out of it.
The film is an action thriller for Amazon MGM Studios in the vein of "Top Gun meets Back to the Future," but with the Philip K. Dick stamp. Meanwhile, Drew Pearce and Nick Cuse are writing the project's script. They have credits on The Fall Guy and Watchmen.
At the moment, there is no information on what the film's release window will be and whether Michael B. Jordan will have any involvement in front of the camera.
