Legendary said Spectral was still at the script stage a month ago...
From 6/18/13 Press Conference:
Director Nic Mathieu joined Tull to talk briefly about Spectral which pits a special ops unit against an army of ghosts ("spectrals") that are causing destruction in Manhattan (Legendary picked the film up on a pitch). The two showed off some concept art: Slide one featured the weaponry used to take down the ghost. They look like modified, futuristic machine guns. Another slide showed a destroyed city street and a ghost rising up in a blast of light, a few soldiers appear to be caught in some sort of shockwave. The film is described as a "modern war movie with an element of the supernatural" and the scope looks nuts. "We harness cutting edge, sci-fi weaponry to wage war on the supernatural," said Mathieu. "We have to do this on a big canvas and bring out the big guns." He added that he liked stories that "force us to look beyond ourselves" and feels Spectral is a movie that does that. The film is currently at the script stage and the hope is to maybe begin shooting in 2014.
