Anthony Peckham will rewrite the script for the DreamWorks Pictures thriller Deep Sea Cowboys, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The film is an adaptation of Joshua Davis’ Wired article about a salvage crew trying to save a capsized Japanese cargo ship. The real-time action scenario will explore how a tightknit crew races to save the ship’s dangerous cargo and claim its reward.
Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci are producing through their K/O Productions. David Ayer (Training Day) previously worked on the script.
