Joseph Kosinski, director of the ridiculously anticipated (and totally awesome looking) Tron Legacy, is already sinking his claws into his next project. Radical Pictures teams up with him to form the upcoming feature called Oblivion, which also is being developed as a graphic novel of sorts.
The story centers on a battle-damaged soldier who, assigned to a desolate planet after a court-martial, patrols the bleak landscape in an effort to destroy the last vestiges of a primitive alien race. When a mysterious traveler arrives unexpectedly, their lives become inextricably linked as they are forced to question everything they know about this world and themselves. (THR)
Producing alongside Kosinski is Barry Levine from Radical Publishing, David Fincher (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) and David Morrison. No set release date for the feature (Oblivion) just yet, but rumor has it the release of Tron Legacy will be around the holiday season of 2010. Bummer for those who are looking forward to the film.
