LatinoReview reports that comedian Tim Allen has his own pet project that he has already written, a film that he wants to star in, direct, and personally finance. It's something so edgy that he doesn't think a studio would back him:
The project is a dark sci-fi project and his first dramatic role as a leading man. The story is about a man who finds himself with the power to do anything; vaguely similar to Bruce Almighty, in premise, but with a much darker and more serious tone.
"It's science fiction, but a threatening kind of science fiction, as though it could actually happen. Literally, what happens to this guy--he has the ability to do whatever he wants. I don't think anyone's strong enough to take that. I've always dreamt about it as a kid--if you could have whatever you wish. It would be fun for a couple of hours, but after that, it would become somewhat of a handicap, a punishment."says Allen.
Comparing his project to Bruce Almighty, Allen says that "[Bruce] had an end. But what if it didn't end? What if it just went on and on? It's scary. Not a good position to be in. It would be fun for awhile. I think Twilight Zone did those. I grew up on that stuff, those twisted stories."
