Zachary Levi will star as the father to a son with both autism and a rare bone disease in a drama based on a true story called “The Unbreakable Boy,” and the project comes from the studio behind “I Can Only Imagine,” Kingdom Story Company and Lionsgate.
Jon Gunn, who co-wrote and executive produced this year’s “I Still Believe,” has written and will direct the film based on a book by Scott M. LeRette with Susy Flory.
Levi in the film will play the father of a boy named Austin who has not just autism but also a rare brittle-bone disease. The film is how Austin’s dad comes to view him not as a symbol for something broken but that of an indestructible spirit, giving him the label “unbreakable” to speak to his physical and inner strength.
