It looks like the fans will get to see a 'Hell or High Water' reunion really soon.

David MacKenzie, director of 'Hell or High Water,' is currently in talks with streaming giant Netflix to direct 'Outlaw King,' according to Hollywood Reporter.

Chris Pine and Ben Foster, who starred as brothers in Mackenzie's Oscar-nominated movie, are both in talks to star in the project.

Pine, 36, would play the Scottish king while Foster, 36, is in talks to play knight James Douglas, the king's loyal aide.

The 'Starred Up' helmer is writing the screenplay for the film, which is set to shoot on location in Scotland in August.

 

This is Mackenzie's first project since his breakthrough film 'Hell or High Water,' which got nominated for four Oscars at this year's Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

He was also a serious contender to direct 'Scarface' for Universal studio, until the project was shelved.
