First announced last month, Sony Pictures is developing Invertigo, an original sci-fi script from Ehren Kruger (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Transformers: Dark of the Moon) and co-writer Bradley Camp. Today, Deadline reports that D.J. Caruso (Disturbia, I Am Number Four) is making plans to direct.

To be produced by Neal Mortiz, Invertigo tells the story about a satellite that, after crashing in New York City, causes the gravitational pull of the Earth to be reversed.

Last year, Caruso became attached to Columbia Pictures' comic book adaptation, Preacher, but there has since been very little momentum on that front.
