Alex Proyas directs Paradise Lost?

Alex Proyas (Knowing, I,Robot) is apparently going to be directing an adaption of John Milton's poem Paradise Lost, according to Collider.

It would not be a stretch to tell you to expect some great visuals, however, I definitely have a few reservations about this project. Especially in this particular line: “will be crafted as an action vehicle that will include aerial warfare, possibly shot in 3D.”
While Proyas directed the amazing Dark City back in 1998, he hasn't been able to match that achievement since. Frankly, this is starting to sound like I, Robot all over again. An interesting concept ruined by generic action movie elements.

Proyas is currently working on the project Dracula: Year Zero with Avatar's Sam Worthington. Let's hope Proyas can pull this off again
