Lea Seydoux Cast in David Cronenberg's THE SHROUDS
David Cronenberg is prepping to shoot his next film project The Shrouds and Lea Seydoux (Crimes Of The Future) was recently cast in the film. She will star alongside Vincent Cassel, who was previously cast.
When talking about the film, Cronenberg insisted that “It’s not a French film,” and said, “It’s a very personal project for me. People who know me will know what parts of it are autobiographical.”
In the film, Cassel plays play a businessman who builds a device to connect with the dead inside a burial shroud. That definitely sounds like a Cronenberg film! Here’s a more details story summary that was shared:
“Karsh’s revolutionary business is on the verge of breaking into the international mainstream when several graves within his cemetery are vandalized and nearly destroyed, including that of his wife. While he struggles to uncover a clear motive for the attack, the mystery of who wrought this havoc, and why, will drive Karsh to reevaluate his business, marriage and fidelity to his late wife’s memory, as well as push him to new beginnings.”
Are you looking forward to seeing what Cronenberg delivers to audiences with this next film or his?
