I think this might be a case of them waiting too long?? I don't know. I really have no desire to see it.

Stuck in pre development hell? October 2023 update.

"I don't know what's happening with that," Derrickson told ComicBook.com's Chris Killian. "We never got the script all the way to a place where the studio wanted to make it, but I was very proud of the work that we did on it. And it's a hard, hard project to turn into something commercially viable, because it's so imaginative and surreal that there's no way that it can be done cheaply. And at the same time, it's so daring and different that it is a tough movie for a studio to feel competent that it has enough commercial value to earn a profit. So I think that it's a tough nut to crack, but all I can tell you is I'm very proud of the work that we did on it. We certainly had a great film in mind."
