Will Smith and son Jaden team for a new untitled sci-fi flick from M. Night Shyamalan

Will Smith is set to star opposite his son Jaden once again in a brand new sci-fi adventure for director M. Night Shyamalan. The flick is as yet untitled, but will beet 1,000 years into the future. According to Columbia Pictures, who are backing the project, the story revolves around a young boy (Jaden Smith) who navigates an abandoned and sometimes scary Earth to save himself and his estranged father (Will) after their ship crashes.

Commenting on the announcement, president of Columbia Doug Belgrad said, “Night is an outstanding filmmaker who has a tremendous vision for this science-fiction adventure story and we couldn’t be more excited to be working again with Jaden after our experiences on ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ and ‘The Karate Kid.’ We’re thrilled to have the two of them together on this project.”

Will will produce through his Overbrook Entertainment banner along with ames Lassiter, Jada Pinkett Smith and Ken Stovitz. Shyamalan wrote the script with Gary Whitta.

Let’s hope that this is a return to form for Shyamalan after the ‘under-performing’ flick that was THE LAST AIRBENDER.
