Robert Zemeckis Lands 'Flight'?

Cast Away director Robert Zemeckis may make a come back on the live-action scene with a new script that has been penned called Flight which Zemeckis may direct reports Deadline. John Gatins (Real Steel) penned the script that centres around a pilot who is hailed for his bravery after landing a plane after disaster strikes. However, after investigation into the crash landing, the hero is not viewed in such a good light. Pretty mysterious I know.

Zemeckis hasn't approached a live-action film since 2000 with Cast Away, opting to focus more on animated films such as Beowulf and A Christmas Carol.

Should Zemeckis take on the project it is expected that it will start production straight away and will take precedence over his other many projects including the travel film Timeless and a GCI/live-action cross-over in the form of How To Survive A Garden Gnome Attack. This make it sound to me like the film may be rushed through production. I'm on the fence about this one.
