Apple’s high-profile space pic Project Artemis looks to be gearing up and also seeing two major changes

As Deadline is hearing that Channing Tatum is in talks to co-star opposite Scarlett Johansson while Greg Berlanti will now direct the pic.

[{"selector":"#anim-a533e800-fe3e-45d4-bb62-436510ad59c6 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-59.725467454585704%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

Tatum replaces Chris Evans, who had to part ways with project due to scheduling conflicts with his upcoming pics Pain Hustlers and Big Red One.

[{"selector":"#anim-cc43a3f0-19c8-4f10-860b-23200b485e98 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-62.24190807295138%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

That said, Apple and Evans just wrapped production on the upcoming action adventure romcom Ghosted that all parties are excited about.

[{"selector":"#anim-efa12095-f3fc-42e5-95cf-87b7e9b5a19b [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Berlanti steps in for Jason Bateman, who as Deadline first reported last month, amicably parted ways with the film due to creative differences

[{"selector":"#anim-b90f3791-8250-49d2-b3c8-5c3e0ce893fb [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-9.349246523159214e-15%, -9.504952240484655e-7%) scale(1.4385964912280702)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

The film is a high priority for Apple, who swooped in to drop $100 million+ to acquire the hot package when it hit the market this past spring.

[{"selector":"#anim-de965baa-ddaa-42b8-a605-0e724265ffba [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(43.770429974154126%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]
