Scott Derrickson (The Day the Earth Stood Still) has been set by Warner Bros. to direct Hyperion Cantos. The project is based on Dan Simmons’ two sci-fi novels — Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion — with Trevor Sands (Inside) scripting the film.
According to Variety, the story is set in the distant future, as a space war threatens Hyperion, a planet known for the Time Tombs — large artifacts that can move through time and are guarded by a gruesome monster called the Shrike.
