Palmer also co-wrote the screenplay with David Matthews. Tony Ganz (Vibes, Gung Ho), Kevin J. Walsh (Manchester by the Sea, The Way, Way Back), Ryan Stowell (Jungleland), P. Jennifer Dana (Table 19) and Ross Jacobson (The Assistant) are producing the project. Ridley Scott (Gladiator, Alien) and Anna Boden & Ryan Fleck (Captain Marvel) are among the executive producers. Naked Singularity is expected to premiere in late 2020 or 2021.
