Mel Gibson is in talks to join action-adventure film, "Every Other Weekend," set to be directed by French filmmaker Benjamin Rocher reports The Hollywood Reporter.
The film will tell the story of a father who believes his son is a CIA spy, but who in reality actually works for the agency in the IT department.
On a father-son trip to Paris, the pair become embroiled in a life-threatening situation, in which secrets are revealed.
One of these secrets is held by the family's grandfather, to be played by Gibson, who is in fact the real spy.
Gibson is currently filming "The Professor and the Madman" a period drama that also stars Sean Penn.
After a career slump, the actor also looks to be set for directorial success with "Hacksaw Ridge," his first outing as a director since 2006's "Apocalypto." The war drama, starring Andrew Garfield, made its world premiere at the 73rd Venice Film Festival, opening to a standing ovation. The movie is due to be released in theaters November 4.
