After the success of Avatar, actor Sam Worthington and director James Cameron are in talks for an upcoming sci-fi action film entitled Myth, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
20th Century Fox is currently negotiating with screenwriter Will Staples (Apaches, World’s Most Wanted) to purchase the project.
Few details have been released, other than the film is supposed to be a big sci-fi flick with lots of action. Titanic director James Cameron is interested in signing on as executive producer, while Worthington and Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Transformers producer, are both looking to produce the film.
No formal agreements have been signed yet as the project is still in the early stages of development, so everything could change. Cameron is currently in preproduction on Avatar 2 and 3, and Worthington and Zoe Seldana have signed on to reprise their roles for future sequels.
In the meantime, Worthington has been busy filming the sequel Wrath of the Titans due out March 30, 2012. On July 16, he will star in The Fields with Chloe Moretz, and on August 31, he co-stars with Helen Mirren in the drama-thriller The Debt.
