Will Smith

Jonathan Mostow will direct the story of a superhero who crash-lands in Sheepshead Bay, N.Y., and causes chaos as he romances a local housewife in an attempt to revitalize himself.

The films script, penned six years ago by Vincent Ngo was resurrected by Akiva Goldsman and ex-Artisan exec Richard Saperstein, who signed Michael Mann to direct. Mann will instead produce the film with Goldsman.

Neither Smith nor Mostow has committed to making Tonight, He Comes as their next pic, but a holiday 2006 release is being eyed.
