John Cusack is in negotiations to star in the aerial action-thriller “Airspace” which Roger Avary (“Killing Zoe,” “Rules of Attraction”) is in talks to direct for Scooty Woop Entertainment and Arclight Films.
Cusack would play a work-absorbed charter pilot flying home to his family who must escape a sudden attack by a heavily armed MiG fighter jet after finding a mysterious briefcase in his plane.
Briana Hartman (“Brother’s Keeper”) wrote the screenplay based on a story by Michael B. Chait. Avary has already begun work on a polish.
