Well they let another one get away. Neil Burger, director of Limitless, backed out of the film project a few days ago after taking up the position in July 11, 2011 after another director backed out before him. The first director was David O. Russel who made The Fighter, but abandoned ship over the usual: “creative differences.”
That’s not the only change Variety is reporting. Writers Marianne and Cormac Wibberley from the film National Treasure will be redoing the script for the motion picture adapatation.
Apparently, a new director won’t be in the works until the Wibberleys complete their script. Third time’s the charm?
