'Pushing Daisies' helmer will direct action comedy for MGM

Barry Sonnenfeld will be in charge of "saving the world," -- that is, he will direct and produce MGM's "The How-to Guide for Saving the World," according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The action comedy, penned by BenDavid Grabinski, centers on an instruction manual for saving the planet. The book was left by a now defunct, secret group that protects Earth from alien invasions. And who should find said periodical? A meek, below-average guy and a woman who can't stand him. The pair then have to work together to keep our way of living safe. Yeah, that should be easy. No pressure there....

Sonnenfeld has had a hand in "Men in Black", "Men in Black II", and "Get Shorty". His latest endeavor for the big screen was"Enchanted" in 2007.
