According to Deadline, Levy will be with 21 Laps' Dan Levine to direct and co-produce The Fall. The script's rights had already been sold last year, and it's about a couple who just got divorced with an alien invasion making the city extra dangerous. The vibe of the story straddles sci-fi and drama, as the couple's own secrets in the marriage are explored just as viewers feel the danger that the invasion brings to their family.
Other names that have been confirmed onboard the project are 21 Laps' Dan Cohen and Madhouse's Robyn Meisenger as executive producers as well as Adam Kolbrenner as producer.

Levy and his company will be seeing quite the packed schedule.
