Orphan and Unknown helmer Jaume Collet-Serra is in talks to direct Here There Be Monsters. As well, the studio is thinking of asking Bradley Cooper (The Hangover) to play the movie's lead, Revolutionary War hero John Paul Jones.
No offers have gone out to Cooper yet as Warner Bros. would prefer to lock down a director before moving forward.

Brian Helgeland (Robin Hood, L.A. Confidential) has been hired to write the screenplay for Here There Be Monsters, an action/fantasy picture set in the 18th century Revolutionary War era. The protagonist is naval hero John Paul Jones, but the element of the fantastic in the story is the inclusion of sea monsters.
The idea is said to come from Legendary Pictures' chairman Thomas Tull, who will also serve as a producer on the movie. Legendary is chasing after director Robert Zemeckis (Back to the Future, Beowulf) to make their film.
