MGM has set The Old Guard’s Gina Prince-Bythewood to direct a feature adaptation of Minnie Schedeen’s short story Exoplanet.

The story is being adapted by Schedeen herself, and is described simply as an “elevated SF thriller”.

“I am so thrilled to be reuniting again with Gina Prince-Bythewood. The opportunity to work with her on Love and Basketball was an incredible experience and to have a chance to work with her again is hugely exciting,” Michael De Luca, MGM’s Film Group chairman told Deadline.

“We are so happy to welcome Gina to the MGM family, along with Minnie, Matt and David,” added Pamela Abdy, MGM’s Film Group president.
