The same production company who brought us Stranger Than Fiction, Mandate Pictures, will finance the project written by DAvid Callaham.
Quaid will play a bitter detective, who is mourning the recent death of his wife. While investigating a case, he discovers a connection between himself and the suspects in a killing spree linked to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
The project has been in the works for four years, when Radar Pictures purchased the rights to the film.
