When you're making a shortlist of legitimate American, nay, Earthling heroes — that list should always include Bill Nye, the undeniably preeminent science guy.

Filmmakers David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg are partnering with Oscar-winning producer Seth Gordon for the project, promising a "a hero at the center who needs to vanquish anti-science foes and literally change the world." The collaboration reportedly stems from a chance meeting between Alvarado and Nye during SXSW in Austin, Texas.
