Disney has tapped Brad Bird (Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol) to direct 1952, a secret tent-pole project penned by Damon Lindelof (“Lost”) and Jeff Jensen.

Deadline reports:

The intention is to get the film into production next year, after a long prep, with Lindelof producing.

The project has been shrouded in mystery since Lindelof was brought on last year, as Disney plans the film as a tent-pole release. We’ll be sure to keep an eye on this one, as it sounds intriguing to say the least. Are you interested, as well?
