From scifi.com:
Australian director Andrew Dominik (Chopper) will develop and direct Paramount's
The Demolished Man, based on SF author Alfred Bester's best-selling book of the
same name, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The book tells the story of a
future society in which telepaths are used to detect crimes before they happen,
the trade paper reported.
No writers or producers are attached to the project yet, the trade paper reported.
Dominik will oversee the development of the script.
For those of you who don't know, Alfred Bester wrote Green Lantern for most of the 1950's (and in fact created the Green Lantern Oath) as well as non-superhero novels and short stories. The Babylon 5 character Al Bester was named after this author, and much of the PsiCorp was based on _The Demolished Man_.
