John Singleton has signed to direct Executive Order: Six, the story of a the residents of a small snowbound town, who team up to battle a mysterious entity that turns out to be an alien horror who came to their town in a crashed plane. The script is written by Philip Eisner and Robbie Consing.
This is unusual ground for Singleton, who's better known for movies involving criminals getting up to no good in not particularly selubrious parts of town. But we're very interested to see how he might apply his directorial sensibility to sci-fi.
