The project picked up the Warner Bros will see this action thriller set for a 2011 release, takes place in a worst case scenario of a deadly virus taking over four continents. (RopeOfSilicon)
It set to be another all-star flick with Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard and Jude Law already embarking the contagious flick. The script is written by Scott Z Burns (The Bourne Ultimatum and The Informant!).
