Ben Mendelsohn is one of those rising star types who you’re starting to notice in absolutely everything. After first appearing in Aussie thriller Animal Kingdom, Mendelsohn could also be glimpsed in The Dark Knight Rises, Killing Them Softly and The Place Beyond the Pines. And now he’s reportedly set to join his fellow Pines star Ryan Gosling for How to Catch a Monster, which will mark Gosling’s debut as a director.
Christina Hendricks has also signed on to appear in How To Catch A Monster, the plot synopsis of which you can read below:
How To Catch a Monster weaves elements of fantasy noir, and suspense into a modern day fairytale. Set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city, Billy, a single mother of two, is swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while her teenage son discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Both Billy and Bones must dive deep into the mystery, if their family is to survive.
How to Catch a Monster begins filming in May and will likely make its way into theatres in 2014. Something you’d like to see, perhaps, given the cast so far?
