Curtis Hanson to Direct Gemini Man ?

Variety are reporting that 'LA Confidential' director Curtis Hanson is in talks with Disney to direct 'Gemini Man' for Uber producer Jerry Bruckheimer.
This is a project that has been trying to get off the ground for nearly ten years and has had writers such as Jonathan Hensleigh take a crack at it, the latest to have a go is David Benioff.
'Gemini Man' sees an NSA agent try to retire only to be targeted for death. He discovers that his assassin is a younger cloned version of himself.
Sounds very different to Hanson's other movies but he is a very good director and this is an interesting sounding project, I imagine they will be looking for a big name star to take the dual roles and I expect we'll see some nifty 'Benjamin Button' style aging effects, I'm looking forward to this one.
