In making the announcement, Iervolino said "The story of Andron is enough to excite sci-fi fans worldwide, but when you add actors like Alec Baldwin and Danny Glover, the meter rises even higher. We're very excited to add this film to our production slate and eager to get to work on a film we believe has great breakout potential."

The new sci-fi/action follows a group of young men and women who wake up in a dark, claustrophobic maze and struggle to survive. They people can't remember how they got in the labyrinth in the first place. In order to survive, they have to learn to decipher codes, understand the signals and beat tests in as they being watched by the rest of the world, who are betting on who will survive.

AMBI recently premiered the film "The Humbler," which was directed by Barry Levinson and starred Al Pacino, at the Toronto Film Festival.
