Robot invasion film Epsilon finds a director in Greg Berlanti

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

Last year we told you that ZOMBIELAND writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick had sold their robot invasion spec script EPSILON to Sony, with a search for a director to follow. Now that director has been found: Greg Berlanti.

Berlanti has a pretty interesting resume, most of it set in the TV world; he currently executive produces CW’s “Arrow,” and executive produced shows like “No Ordinary Family” and “Brothers and Sisters”. He also co-wrote WRATH OF THE TITANS, GREEN LANTERN, and is attached to direct a feature version of THE FLASH.

Here’s the film’s plot:

Epsilon is set after a failed robot rebellion on an Earth almost entirely devoid of electronic devices. The remaining robots seek refuge on a space station and begin to raise their own human lab rats, which they train to act as their agents. The main character is a man who discovers he is more human than he thought.

We’ll let you know more about EPSILON as more info comes in.
