Derrickson and his "Sinister" co-scribe C. Robert Cargill will write a new film adaptation of the cult sci-fi and horror anthology TV series "The Outer Limits" that originally aired on ABC from 1963 to 1965 for MGM says Heat Vision.
Derrickson and Cargill will adapt the second season episode "Demon with a Glass Hand" written by the great Harlan Ellison for the big screen.
That story follows Trent (Robert Culp)--a man with no memory beyond the last ten days. His left hand has been replaced by an advanced computer shaped like a hand but missing three fingers - fingers that must be reattached before the truth can be revealed. At the same time the man is being hunted by an alien race who seem him as key to their survival and who have the missing fingers. So begins a deadly hide-and-seek game within a rundown office building sealed off from the world.
Mark Victor is producing the film.
Derrickson will work on the script while he preps "Doctor Strange".
