Kosinski doesn't have many films to his name, but you've probably heard of the ones he has done: Tron: Legacy and Oblivion are standouts, but did you know he also directed several trailers for Destiny? The movie will star Tom Cruise (because let's be honest, who else was gonna carry this thing), and is written by Peter Craig (The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, The Town) and Justin Marks (Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, The Jungle Book).
Now comes the real challenge: resisting the urge to break out into Kenny Loggins every time this movie gets mentioned for the next two years.
There was "no version" of Sonic 3 that wouldn't include Live and Learn according to director Jeff Fowler: "The fans would hunt me down"
