David Ayer Has Fury

End of Watch writer/director David Ayer has made quite the sale for his spec script Fury.? Deadline reports that QED International has paid $1 million for Ayer?s script, with the filmmaker attached to direct the World War II actioner.? The story ?takes place in 1945 as the Nazi regime collapses and the five man crew of an American tank called Fury battles a desperate German army.? Ayer is hoping to begin production later this fall, and his goal with the film is ?to bring tank combat to life in a way that lands with a modern audience.? ?I?m not entirely sure what, specifically, modern audiences crave out of a tank warfare movie, but I believe the answer is massive explosions and dubstep.

Ayer is best known for his gritty cop dramas like Harsh Times and Training Day, but he picked up considerable critical acclaim for last year?s End of Watch and most recently wrapped a thriller take on the Agatha Christie story Ten Little Indians called Ten, which stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sam Worthington, and Terrence Howard.? QED also teamed up with Ayer on Ten, which opens next January, so they must be liking what they?re seeing from that film thus far.
