Bonzai Shadowhands, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Jason Reitman is directing the dark comedy, while plot details are being kept under wraps, it is known to be about a once-great ninja who is now living a life of mediocrity.
"I was in a Starbucks, and a young fellow walked in and he said to me, 'Hi, you don't know me, but my name is Jason Reitman, and I'm Ivan's son. I want to do a movie with you, and would you play a ninja?' " Wilson recalled. "I felt like I was discovered at Schwab's."
