Future films
In March 2007, Gibson told a screening audience that he was preparing another script with Farhad Safinia about the writing of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). Gibson's company has long owned the rights to The Professor and the Madman, which tells the story of the creation of the OED.
Gibson has dismissed the rumors that he is considering directing a film about Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez de Balboa. Asked in September 2007 if he planned to return to acting and specifically to action roles, Gibson said:
Variety has reported that Gibson is set to star in a film adaptation of the BBC miniseries, Edge of Darkness. He's a big fan of the serial and was very enthusiastic about playing the part of the lead character, Ronald Craven, when producer Graham King and director Martin Campbell approached him for the role. This will be his first starring role since Signs and We Were Soldiers back in 2002. Edge of Darkness is currently filming and is slated for a 2009 release.
