Bold Films has optioned an action thriller called Psy-Ops from Scott Stewart and Gus Krieger.
“Psy-Ops” revolves around a covert U.S. military unit of psychological operatives who specialize in exploiting their target’s deepest fears. When on a routine mission to the Amazon Basin, they discover something more terrifying than they could have imagined.
Bold is hoping to combine the elements of such 1980s action flicks as “Predators” and “Aliens” with the psychological tone and visual realism of such 21st century movies as “Black Hawk Down” and the “Bourne” series.
Stewart is producing with Bold’s David Lancaster and Michel Litvak. Gary Michael Walters is exec producing.
I love it when they reference other films as their mashup insipriation. I especially love it when they describe their movie as a bit of films that I really like too.
I’d be curious to see what they do with it.
