20th Century Fox has acquired “Men Who Kill” with Michael B. Jordan attached to star.TJ Fixmanwould write the script with Greg Berlanti producing. It is described as a CIA thriller with remaining
plot details being kept under wraps. Fox paid in the six figure range for the pitch and the sale makes
sense given Fox’s growing relationship with rising star Jordan, who is set to play Johnny Storm in
Fox’s “Fantastic Four.” Jordan, who is repped by WME and the Schiff Company, was most recently
seen in Focus Features’ “The Awkward Moment” and besides “Fantastic Four,” has a handful of
projects in development including a “Rocky” spin-off called “Creed.”
