Universal Pictures is close to a deal with Carl Erik Rinsch to make his feature directing debut on "47 Ronin," the epic samurai tale that will star Keanu Reeves.
According to Variety, Scott Stuber is producing through his Stuber Pictures production company.
Rinsch made his name shooting commercials for Ridley and Tony Scott’s RSA production company. He had been considered to direct the upcoming prequel to "Alien" until Ridley Scott decided to direct the film himself.
The film tells the fact-based story of a band of samurai swordsmen who avenge the death of their master in 18th century Japan.
Chris Morgan wrote the script. Walter Hamada, Chris Fenton and Erwin Stoff will executive produce.
