Akiva Schaffer has been offered directing duties for 20th Century Fox's comedy "Neighborhood Watch."
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Shawn Levy and his 21 Laps company are producing.
The story revolves around three men who form a suburban "neighborhood watch" group, that is really a front for fathers to get some male bonding time away from the wives and kids. Things take a turn when the group uncovers a plot to destroy the world.
Ben Stiller has been mentioned as a candidate for one of the three leads.
Jared Stern wrote the original screenplay, with Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg having done a recent rewrite.
Schaffer directed the comedy "Hot Rod" and has done writing/directing work on "Saturday Night Live."
