Jodie Foster’s Next Directing Gig? A Sci-Fi Thriller

While Jodie Foster the actress has a rich and varied resume — horror! science fiction! childrens’ adventure! whatever Flightplan was! — but as a director, she’s stuck to smaller, family-based dramas, including SXSW’ s sweetheart, The Beaver .

And of course, she still has to finishing shooting Roman Polanski’s Carnage as well as Neill Blomkamp’s District 9 follow-up, Elysium before she can turn her eyes sci-fi-ward.
