Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Tuesday that Craig Gillespie has entered negotiations to direct Homewreckers for Legendary Pictures, with Deadline first breaking the news.
- Glen Powell is attached to star and produce, and Neil M. Paik is adapting his own novella into the screenplay.
- Legendary acquired the Homewreckers package in December 2024 after a competitive bidding process, and the project has remained in development since then.
- Public details remain limited: the official logline and full cast are unpublished, no release date has been set, and some outlets have separately reported an AI‑centered premise and an active search for the female lead as unconfirmed reporting.
- If Gillespie signs, the move would follow his entry into the DC slate with Supergirl and could signal Legendary’s willingness to back darker, genre‑driven fare while furthering Powell’s role as a star‑producer.
