Pearce has been brought on not to fix problems, but will instead "age up the characters" so that they fit the actors the studio has in mind for roles. David Callahan, David Goyer and Max Borenstein have all worked on previous drafts of the screenplay. Pearce is also writing Sherlock Holmes 3.
The film has been in the pipeline for several years, but picked up steam recently - after a proof of concept trailer screened twice during Comic-Con 2012 and got great reaction. The project will "return the character to its epic roots with a gritty, realistic actioner".
The film will be directed by Gareth Edwards ("Monsters").
Goyer, Borenstein, Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni will produce.
Roy Lee, Dan Lin Brian Rogers. Alex Garcia Patricia Whitcher Doug Davison, Yoshimitsu Banno and Kenji Okuhira will serve as executive producers.
The film will get a 3-D release, but it's unclear if it is being shot that way or converted in post production. The big guy returns to theaters on May 16th 2014
