In the meantime, there has been no official word about the Pakistani actress being cast in the movie.
Obaid-Chinoy is working with Paramount Pictures to make a movie version of Brilliance, a well-known book by Marcus Sakey.
Smith will be a part of the team because his company, Westbrook Studios, is making the movie.
Based on the novel by Marcus Sakey, the premise of the film is as follows:
“If 1% of the world’s children were born with powerful gifts, how would society adapt to them? The Brilliance novel trilogy is set in a future where non-neurotypical people – demonized by society as “twists” or “abnorms” – are threatening the status quo of the “normal” population with their unique gifts.”
