Scott Derrickson ("The Day the Earth Stood Still") will direct "Hyperion Cantos" for Warner Bros. and GK Films.
Apparently, the project will use two of Dan Simmons sci-fi novels -- "Hyperion" and "The Fall of Hyperion" and merge them into a single film.
The story takes place in the distant future where a war in space threatens a planet called Hyperion which is known for large artifacts that move through time. These are guaarded by a horrific monster called 'The Shrike.'
Trevor Sands ("Finding Interest") will adapt the screenplay.
