Very Skeptical that this will happen.
I've noticed as of late Sam's kind of semi retired from the directors seat and has got in the habit of producing, hearing this news just feels like a double edged sword to me, i wanna be excited but at the same time, Sam's made a habit of joining a project and then dropping out as director. We'll see though
Should probably point out what that BD article fails to mention is that Sam isn't confirmed yet, it's in the "In Talks" stage right now.
