Gerard Butler in Talks for New Sci-Fi Actioner

Gerard Butler is currently in negotiations to join Universal's The Raven, a new sci-fi action flick based on Ricardo de Montreuil and Antonio Perez's 2010 short film.

According to Coming Soon, The Hunger Games' Liam Hemsworth was original in talks for the role, but now the focus has shifted to Butler following the actor's success with the recent Olympus Has Fallen. In The Raven, he would be playing "a man with remarkable powers who is being chased by the government and the military who both want those powers working for them."

The film will be co-financed and produced by Universal and Gold Circle. Mark Wahlberg and Steve Levinson will also produce.
