According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony has picked up the rights to the upcoming book Agent Storm: My Life Inside al Qaeda and the CIA, and are looking at Paul Greengrass to direct.
The book is based on the life of Morten Storm, “a troubled youth who, after spending time in prison in London, converted to Islam and moved to Yemen in 2001 to study the Quran. There, he met and worked with extremists, but he eventually realized how dangerous the groups were and was recruited by the CIA as a double agent.”
This certainly sounds like a good fit for Greengrass, whose previous films include The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, United 93, Green Zone and Captain Phillips.
