The untitled film will be directed by Paddington director Paul King and will be based on a New Yorker short story from Saturday Night Live writer Simon Rich.

Ryan will be playing a dad “dealing with the everyday challenges of family and raising kids. The only problem is, he has to raise his children while living through the ongoing Great Monster Uprising.”

Rich‘s story “Everyday Parenting Tips” was released in the New Yorker this past May. He will be adapting his short story into a screenplay for the movie. You can read the story at NewYorker.com.
