CBS Films is in talks with George Tillman Jr. to direct Faster, an action drama that will star Dwayne Johnson.
Johnson will play an ex-con bent on avenging the death of his brother, murdered 10 years earlier when the two were double-crossed during a heist.
Tillman Jr. will replace helmer Phil Joanou, who dropped out several months ago.
Joe and Tony Gayton wrote the script for the film, which will begin production in January 2010.
