Stephen Norrington Joins THE LOST PATROL!!

Merrick here...
Stephen Norrington, who did such a fine job directing BLADE back in 1998 - and faced struggles on the shoulda-been-way better LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN in 2003 - will re-write and direct the World War II supernatural thriller THE LOST PATROL for Legendary Pictures.

Norrington said the project hit all of his "geek-buttons" and contains "hardware, heroes, grime, insane monsters."

...per THIS piece in Hollywood Reporter. I've always had this feeling Norrington is a badass filmmaker waiting to truly shine. Maybe PATROL, or his currently-in-development reworking of THE CROW, will at long last afford him this opportunity.
