ECLIPSE PICTURES TO FINANCE AND DISTRIBUTE SCI-FI THRILLER “EXO” FROM SKYBOUND ENTERTAINMENT AND RADAR PICTURES

CEDRIC NICOLAS-TROYAN TO DIRECT
Spring 2020 shoot anticipated

LOS ANGELES, CA., February 6th, 2019 — Eclipse Pictures has boarded the Skybound Entertainment/Radar Pictures thriller Exo, which Cedric Nicolas-Troyan (The Huntsman: Winter’s War) will direct.

Eclipse will arrange financing for the film, and represent it for worldwide distribution. Casting will shortly be underway for a Spring 2020 production start.

Exo is an original screenplay by Adam Cohen. Skybound’s Sean Furst and Bryan Furst, and Ra-dar’s Ted Field and Mike Weber will produce the film. Executive producers are Skybound’s Rob-ert Kirkman and David Alpert, alongside Eclipse’s Benedict Carver and Daniel Diamond.

In Exo, over-imaginative high school senior Nathan has spotted an uptick in local UFO sightings, and, when the new girl next door, Kyra, starts behaving mysteriously, he becomes suspicious. De-fying his ultra-disciplined father, Jim, Nathan decides to investigate further, eventually coming to an unbelievable discovery.

“It’s exciting for Skybound and Radar to be working with Cedric and Eclipse on this highly
original take on a YA thriller,” said Bryan and Sean Furst in a joint statement. “In his original screenplay Adam has created a franchiseable world and group of characters that we believe will translate across a number of properties and formats.”

Nicolas-Troyan is represented by CAA and Cohen by Paradigm.
