Gibson Returns to Sci-Fi

Man, even though Mel Gibson has gone a bit nutty in his film choices recently, I sure would love to see another Road Warrior flick - so it's good news that he is delving back into the Sci-Fi world with a film called Push.

Gibson's Icon Productions is teaming up with Infinity Features (Capote) to produce and finance the film, as well as two other undetermined pics. The story is said to center around a group of American ex-pats with telekinetic and clairvoyant abilities. While hiding out from U.S. intelligence agencies (who, I assume, probably want to use them to either find Osama Bin Laden or throw toasters across the room just using their eyes), the group come together to perform the one last mission that can save them from detection.

While there's no word on whether or not Gibson will actually star, it would be interesting to see him as the group's fearless leader. The film is currently in the packaging stage (Hmm, I wonder if there is a box big enough to fit Mel's ego) and should begin shooting in China next year.
