Production
Among Us was directed by Blomkamp and based on a screenplay by him and Terri Tatchell that was adapted from the popular 2018 video game of the same name. Disney optioned the game in February 2023, and producers Simon Kinberg and Ridley Scott was attached to develop the game into a film, and was going to be distributed under the 20th Century Studios banner. It was speculated than either Kinberg and Scott would direct, but both men were busy with other projects. However, they brought it to Blomkamp's attention. Blomkamp, who had finished directing his horror film Inferno, was interested into this story. Having produced both Elysium and Chappie with Kinberg, and Blomkamp directing an unrealized fifth Alien movie with Scott, he quickly signed on.
