Eli Roth developing 'Species' & 'Thanksgiving'

Filmmaker Eli Roth is moving back to writing and directing after spending some time producing and acting. The "Hostel" helmer is currently developing two upcoming projects in the genres of sci-fi and horror.

Roth said he is about to finish his script for "Endangered Species," a sci-fi flick he will probably direct. He also said he's writing "Thanksgiving," a film based on one of the trailers we saw during "Grindhouse."

Roth has been really busy lately. He most recently starred in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds," and he is also developing "The Man with the Iron Fist" with Robert Fitzgerald Diggs.

Roth's latest producing gig is Daniel Stamm's thriller "Cotton," which he will show to Sundance soon. Of course, Roth is known mostly for his two "Hostel" films.
