Mel Gibson is in talks to helm war thriller 'Destroyer'. The 62-year-old actor is believed to be heading behind the camera for a directing credit on the World War II movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The project would mark Gibson's second war film directing role in a row, after having previously worked on 'Hacksaw Ridge' - which starred Andrew Garfield - in 2016, which served as his directorial comeback. The directing credit comes as Gibson is also being eyed for an acting role in 'The Six Billion Dollar Man', where he would star opposite Mark Wahlberg.
