New Regency has started negotiations to pick up Andrew Niccol's new script, according to Empire Online.

The Gattaca and The Truman Show writer recently penned the screenplay for new sci-fi feature I'm Mortal.

Niccol's script is set in the near future, when ageing has been outsmarted and time becomes the new currency.

The protagonist is a man who comes into a fortune of time but is too late to save his dying mother.

The film is scheduled to begin shooting this summer.
