This could easily be the best news of the year, sans the reveal of J.J. Abrams’ Super 8. The LA Times is reporting that South Korean director Park Chan-wook – the genius behind Oldboy, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance and Thirst – could make his English-language directorial debut on Stoker, a drama about a young woman whose eccentric uncle comes back into her life after the death of her father. Stoker>, you may recall, is the first film from “Prison Break” star Wentworth Miller, who penned the script in his other life as a screenwriter, and is being produced by Ridley and Tony Scott’s company, as well as Carey Mulligan is playing the young woman, and Jodie Foster is co-starring in the movie.
