Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in talks to direct Universal's R-rated musical comedy film, with a working title "Wingmen".

"The Walk" actor is also set to star in the movie alongside Channing Tatum.

Gordon-Levitt and the "21 Jump Street" star will produce the film along with Marc Platt, Adam Siegel and Peter Kiernan.

The project will focus on the story of two pilots (Gordon-Levitt and Tatum) who crash-land in Las Vegas, according to Variety.

It is also reported that the upcoming movie is a combination of "Pitch Perfect" and Broadway musical "The Book of Mormon", with a touch of adult humour.

The movie will mark Gordon-Levitt's return as director after he helmed 2013's romantic comedy drama "Don Jon".
