William Monahan (The Departed) will write the script for Oblivion, to be directed by TRON: Legacy helmer Joseph Kosinski. The Walt Disney Pictures project is described as follows:
In a future where the Earth’s surface has been irradiated beyond recognition, the remnants of humanity live above the clouds, safe from the brutal alien Scavengers that stalk the ruins. But when surface drone repairman Jak discovers a mysterious woman in a crash-landed pod, it sets off an unstoppable chain of events that will force him to question everything he knows.
