Orci would eventually leave the project to work on Star Trek Beyond. On April 10, 2015, TheWrap reported that Dean Israelite was in negotiations to direct the film. Israelite told IGN in an interview that the film will be "completely playful, and it needs to be really fun and funny. But like Project Almanac, it's going to feel very grounded at the same time, and very contemporary and have a real edge to it, and a real gut to it, it's going to be a fun, joyful [movie] but one that feels completely grounded in a real world, with real characters going through real things."Brian Tyler was brought on to compose the film. Director Dean Israelite explained how the film will update itself from the original series, to be more character-driven and incorporate naturalism and grounded nature.
