Paramount Pictures has announced that Chris Evans-starrer reincarnation drama "Infinite" will open in the theatres in the US on August 7, 2020. The film will be directed by "Equalizer" helmer Antoine Fuqua and produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Mark Vahradian and John Zaozirny, reported Variety.

Rafi Crohn will be the executive producer. Based on D Eric Maikranz's best-selling novel "The Reincarnationist Papers", the film centres on a group of near-immortal men and women who are reincarnated over the centuries and are known as "the Infinite".

To defeat an evil mastermind who wants to destroy the planet, the group must rely on a man who suffers from schizophrenia and will have to learn that all his vivid dreams are actually memories from past lives, in order to defeat the villain.

Ian Shorr and John Lee Hancock have adapted the script from Maikranz's book. Evans recently featured in Marvel Studios' tentpole "Avengers: Endgame". He is also starring in Rian Johnson's "Knives Out", alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Daniel Craig, and Michael Shannon.
