Legendary Pictures has purchased Pacific Rim, a 25-page science fiction treatment by Travis Beacham for development into a tentpole feature, reports Deadline New York.
Beacham, who was the first writer on the recent Clash of the Titans remake, will script the project which sees a future Earth defending itself from attacking creatures. There is no word on the origin of these beings, though the title suggest that they may come from beneath the sea.
