Exciting news for Nacho Vigalondo, who directed Timecrimes, Extraterrestrial and one of our V/H/S Viral segments (pictured above), as he’ll be getting behind the camera for the Godzilla-esque Colossal.
Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises, Interstellar) is set to star in Voltage Pictures’ Colossal, described as Godzilla meets Lost in Translation, adds THR.
“Hathaway will play Gloria, an ordinary woman who, after losing her job and her fiancé, decides to leave her life in New York to move back to her hometown.
But when news reports surface that a giant lizard is destroying the city of Tokyo, Gloria gradually comes to realize that she is strangely connected to these far-off events via the power of her mind. In order to prevent further destruction, Gloria needs to determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world.”
Voltage Pictures is fully financing Colossal and will launch the project to foreign buyers in Cannes.
