Edgar Wright is working on a "smart and scary" horror movie.

The World's End director, who is currently preparing to direct Marvel's Ant-Man, is developing the project with I Am Legend and Oldboy screenwriter Mark Protosevich.

Protosevich told Ain't It Cool News that he can reveal "zilch" about the project; however, he called the British director a "delightful" collaborator.

"The one thing I'll say is that Edgar's movies have a certain tone, and this one might be a little unexpected because the main thing we're going for is scary. Smart and scary," Protosevich said.

The final instalment in Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost's Cornetto Trilogy, The World's End, is out on DVD and Blu-ray now.
