Terribly titled to sound like a prequel to Sony’s The 5th Wave?
Paris-based Sales company Bac Films has released a first image of Ellen Page (Hard Candy) in post Zombie era drama The Third Wave, which ScreenDaily shared this morning.
The drama – the first feature of Irish director David Freyne – “Unfolds in the aftermath of a devastating virus which transformed the infected into zombie-like monsters. Mankind is struggling to rebuild societies deeply divided between the uninfected and those who did succumb to the virus and are still haunted by their violent actions. In the backdrop, the rise of a terrorist movement threatens to plunge the world into chaos again.”
Freyn directed from his own screenplay developed out of proof of concept prequel short The First Wave, which is also not a prequel to The 5th Wave.
Bac Films will screen first footage on the first and second day of the EFM.
