Esmail will also produce the film alongside Chad Hamilton, Scott Stuber, Roberts, Marisa Yeres Gill, and Lisa Gillan
Warner Bros. triumphed in a "heating bidding war" for the motion picture, which will see the helmer reunite with Roberts.
He directed the Hollywood star in Netflix psychological thriller movie 'Leave the World Behind', which was released last year and also featured Mahershala Ali, Ethan Hawke, and Myha'la.

Olsen has played the character in several Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films, from 2015’s ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ to ‘Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ in 2022, and recently said she thinks of Marvel movies as an "insurance" for her indie projects.
Speaking at Vulture Festival, the actress said: “I’d never really had the mentality of, ‘One for them, one for me.’
“Marvel has been such a consistent thing I’ve been able to return to and has created - what’s the word? - some feeling of insurance in my life that has given me freedom to choose other jobs. So I haven’t felt like, ‘And then I’ll do this to do this.’ "
