Shawn Levy is set to direct the original sci-fi movie “Somewhere Out There” for Netflix. The streamer picked up the spec script written by Max Taxe in a bidding war. Levy will also produce the film under his 21 Laps banner along with the company’s Dan Levine. The story falls in the emotional vein of “Arrival” and “The Adam Project,” and concerns a grieving father who, after losing his wife, sends a message out into the stars…and something out there starts to talk back.
