Benny Safdie is attached to direct. He and A24 have a great track record of putting out interesting, weird, and high quality grime that you absolutely want to check out. And I don't think Johnson is going to have to stray too far from his general persona to pull it off this performance so I'm pretty hopeful about the project.
