According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Monster House team of executive producer Robert Zemeckis and director Gil Kenan will collaborate again to bring Artemis Fowl author Eoin Colfer’s children’s adventure book Airman to the screen, using the same performance-capture technology as before. The plot concerns one Conor Broekhart, a “young man born in a hot air balloon to a family close to the king who has a penchant for looking to the skies for inspiration. After his tutor and king are murdered, Broekhart spends two years in prison, escapes and must decide whether to should turn his back on those who abandoned him or fight those who plot to overthrow the government”. Airman was published in January; Zemeckis will produce though ImageMovers, but it is unknown if the film will be distributed through the company’s deal with Walt Disney Studios. Zemeckis’ own next directorial outing, the Jim Carrey-starrer A Christmas Carol will come to theaters in the 2009 holidays.
