It’s not a bad time to be part of the Cuaron family. Children of Men director Alfonso Cuaron is prepping his sci-fi film Gravity. His brother Carlos recently directed Rudo y Cursi. Alfonso’s son Jonas helped him out writing Gravity and now Heat Vision reports Warner Bros has picked up another script.
The details on the project are extremely scarce, but we know it is a “gritty thriller set in Mexico City.” Jon Berg, the Warners Senior VP of Production came up with the idea and will oversee producers Gianni Nunnari and Craig Flores will executive produce.
As for Gravity, the studio is in search for a female lead and after Natalie Portman‘s fantastic performance in Black Swan, she is at the top of the list.
Jonas also co-directed a documentary short The Shock Doctrine with Alfonso and Nancy Klein. You can check it out below.
