I've just stumbled across the news of
Emily Mortimer joining the cast of
Transsiberian and I just realised I haven't spoken about the movie on this site yet. So slap my wrist and a way we go... Transsiberian is
Brad Andersen's follow up to his amazing flick
The Machinist in 2004 and stars
Ben Kingsley,
Woody Harrelson,
Kate Mara and
Eduardo Noriega. More info from
Coming Soon...
"The film revolves around an American couple, Roy (Harrelson) and Jessie (Mortimer), who travel on the famed Trans-Siberian train from China to Moscow. They soon encounter another couple, Abby (Mara) and her boyfriend, Carlos (Noriega), and what seems to be a simple train journey turns into a chase full of deception and murder". Mortimer replaces the previously cast
Samantha Morton who dropped out of the flick after suffering an injury when her ceiling caved in at her home in London. OUCH! Brad Andersen impressed me so much with his direction of The Machinist. Here's hoping he is not a one-trick pony. source -
