Based on the short story by George Saunders, Escape From Spiderhead is set in the near future, when convicts are offered the chance to volunteer as medical subjects in hopes of shortening their sentences.

Teller will reteam with Kosinski, who is currently helming Top Gun: Maverick. The screenplay was written by Deadpool and Zombieland scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
