`Quantum` director and producer to work together on `Disconnect`

Variety reports that "Quantum of Solace" helmer Marc Forster and producer William Horberg are reteaming on the tech thriller "Disconnect" for Nala Films.

Penned by Andrew Stern, script explores the mystery of how people live in today's wired world, where the technology meant to bring them together only forces them further apart.

Nala's Darlene Caamano Loquet and Emilio Diez Barroso optioned the script and will finance and produce the film. Brad Simpson and Forster are also producing via their Apparatus shingle alongside Wonderful Films' Horberg.

Nala, whose recent credits include "Dan in Real Life" and "In the Valley of Elah," is in post-production on the supernatural thriller "Shelter," starring Julianne Moore and Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

Forster, who is not expected to return for another James Bond installment, is developing "World War Z" for Paramount Pictures. His credits include "Stranger Than Fiction" and "Finding Neverland."
