Thanks to Chronicle, Max Landis is one of the most in-demand screenwriters in Hollywood, having taken on a range of projects from a space movie at Disney to Woogles and a sequel to Chronicle. However now he’s broadening his horizons and following in his father John’s directing footsteps, as Variety reports he’s set to helm Me Him Her, based on his own screenplay.
The project is an indie comedy that Big Beach Films has agreed to fund. There’s precious little info on the plot, other than Landis describing it as ‘Reality Bites on acid.’ That doesn’t really tell us much, but it will apparently explore three young people going through a quarter-life crisis in Los Angeles, looking at love, sex and friendship as one of the trio struggles with their sexuality.
The plan is to shoot next year, although it’s not entirely certain when at the moment. Presumably Landis is waiting to find a gap in amongst all the other projects he’s got going on, which also include a couple of TV pilots.
