Bloody-Disgusting previously brought us the plot synopsis for the upcoming "The Thing" prequel and now have found out who the main character might be and who could potentially be directing this new sci-fi horror project.
According to the site, Matthijs van Heijningen Jr is in talks to direct "The Thing" prequel for Universal Pictures. Van Heijningen is also currently attached to Zack Snyder's upcoming zombie film "Army of the Dead."
The direction that van Heijningen wants to go in is to make RJ Macready's brother the lead character in the new movie. Macready was played by Kurt Russell in John Carpenter's 1982 film.
Plot synopsis: "In the screenplay by Ronald D. Moore, the prequel takes place from the Norwegian camps point of view. An American scientific expedition to the frozen wastes of the Antarctic is interrupted by a group of seemingly mad Norwegians pursuing and shooting a dog.
The helicopter pursuing the dog crashes leaving no explanation for the chase.
During the night, the dog mutates and attacks other dogs in the cage and members of the team that investigate. The team soon realize that an alien life-form with the ability to take over bodies is on the loose and they don't know who may already have been taken over."
