'Transformers' director Michael Bay that grossed over $700 mn worldwide may direct the film 'I Am Number 4'. DreamWorks has set Al Gough and Miles Millar to adapt 'I Am Number 4', the novel co-written by 'A Million Little Pieces' author James Frey and Jobie Hughes.

The '4...' story line involves a group of teenaged alien refugees assimilating to high school on Earth when they discover that their home planet's enemy is now hunting them on their new turf.
Spielberg plans to produce it and is considering directing 'Pirate Latitudes', an adaptation of a novel by late Michael Crichton. He had worked with Spielberg for 'Jurassic Park', 'ER together' for television and the tornado movie 'Twister'.
