Ben Ripley, the writer of the excellent sci-fi thriller Source Code, has another high-concept sci-fi pic headed our way, thanks to Netflix. The streaming service has scooped up Ripley’s spec script Parallel, which is described as a “heist story that takes place across parallel universes.” Rideback, a production house run by Dan Lin and The Two Popes, will produce Parallel. THR has the story on Parallel, revealing that the Ben Ripley spec script has been picked up by Netflix. Ripley’s credits are a little all over the place. He wrote Source Code, a nifty little sci-fi thriller from 2011 in which Jake Gyllenhaal used time travel (sort of) to help stop a terrorist attack. It’s a clever flick that’s only gotten better with age. That, too, was a spec script that a studio picked up. And it didn’t exactly have an easy time getting to the screen.
