After teaming up on Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, filmmaker Scott Cooper and 20th Century Studios are reuniting for an untitled UFO feature. Their next high-profile movie will be based on the infamous reported UAPs (unidentified aerial phenomenon) in Roswell, New Mexico, Deadline is reporting.

The filmmaker will write and direct the new sci-fi project. The event the movie will be based on took place in 1947 in Roswell, when a rancher supposedly found debris scattered around his property. Government officials then closed ranks on his land as conspiracy theories took flight about a possible UFO event.

To make matters more conspiratorial, the U.S. Army Air Forces initially issued a press release claiming they had recovered a flying disc. But they then quickly retracted the news, and instead claimed what fell on the rancher’s property was just a weather balloon.

Despite quickly becoming pop-culture lore, the Roswell incident has never been turned into a theatrical feature film before. It has been explored on television and in a made-for-TV movie over the past eight decades, however.

The closest Hollywood has ever come to making a feature inspired by Roswell was the 1980 sci-fi action film, Hangar 18. But the thinly fictionalized depiction of the crash and the alleged government cover-up never explicitly named Roswell.

Producers Eric Robinson and Ellen Goldsmith-Vein will reteam with Scott Cooper on the upcoming film. The scribe-helmer also worked with the duo as a fellow producer on the musical biopic.

Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere chronicles the titular musician’s formative life on screen. The film marked the first time that Bruce Springsteen and Jon Landau allowed the Grammy Award-winning musician’s story to be told in a narrative feature.

Jeremy Allen White played the singer-songwriter. Jeremy Strong, meanwhile, portrayed his longtime manager. The biopic focused on a serious bout of depression and childhood PTSD that Springsteen weathered while writing and recording his seminal 1982 album, Nebraska.

After Born to Run, Darkness on the Edge of Town and The River put him on the brink of global stardom, Springsteen decided to concentrate on his own mental health first. After seeking help for his depression, Springsteen scored his biggest global hit with Born in the USA.

Springsteen and Landau supported and participated in crafting Cooper’s film. The project ultimately launched last year’s Telluride festival to strong reviews. It has since grossed $45 million worldwide since its theatrical release.

While the UFO film has been announced, Cooper has not yet confirmed if it will be the next screen project he makes. He may first shoot Commanche, which was written by Eric Roth. Michael Mann originally signed on to direct the movie before he personally turning his directorial duties over to Cooper.
