Matt Damon has been tipped to star in forthcoming science fiction tale The Adjustment Bureau, reports Variety.
George Nolfi, who wrote Damon’s The Bourne Ultimatum and who is also writing the next Bourne franchise installment, would make his directing debut with The Adjustment Bureau.
The project is said to be loosely based on a Philip K. Dick short story in which a real estate salesman discover that the world is really a manufactured reality controlled by mysterious guardians.
Meanwhile, Variety reports that several studios were bidding on Adam McKay‘s B-Team, an action comedy written by Chris Henchy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg.
Henchy co-wrote Ferrell’s upcoming Land of the Lost, and is co-executive producer of HBO’s Entourage, on which Wahlberg is executive producer. He is also involved in McKay and Ferrell’s Web site FunnyOrDie.com.
