Sandra Bullock Signs On for Netflix's Post-Apocalyptic Thriller BIRD BOX

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Oscar winner Sandra Bullock is now in discussions to lead Netflix's post-apocalyptic thriller BIRD BOX. The project is based on
Josh Malerman's 2014 novel of the same name.

Set in the future, the story follows "a mother (Bullock) and her two young children who are among a small group of survivors after a mysterious alien force has driven the world's population to deadly violence. The three must make their way on a terrifying journey -- 20 miles in a rowboat -- while blindfolded, with nothing to rely on but the mother's wits and the children's trained ears."

Netflix film chief Scott Stuber will produce the project. Production is scheduled to get underway this August. Bullock will soon be seen on the big screen in Gary Ross's all-all-female spin-off OCEAN'S EIGHT.
