Nicolas Winding Refn, a director that was more or less unknown 18 months ago, has yet another project on the horizon. The director who became noticed through his 2008 film Bronson, which starred Tom Hardy, has gained a lot of media attention of late.
THR is reporting that they have learnt the title of another project from Refn which stars his Drive actress Carey Mulligan. The newly titled I Walk With The Dead, is “just going to have a lot of sex in it,” according to the director.
Further details that are known about the project are the fact that it is set in Miami and that it will be produced and funded by Wild Bunch and Gaumont, the same companies which are behind Nicolas Winding Refn‘s next directional piece, Only God Forgives.
Refn is also prepping a remake of Logans Run and an Untitled Romantic Comedy, set in New York, both of which will also star Ryan Gosling. On top of these there is also the possibility that Nicolas Winding Refn will make an adaptation of the Wonder Women comics, with yet another Drive actor, Christina Hendricks.
Drive, which already has had great reviews from the Cannes Film Festival, where Nicolas Winding Refn won the best director award, will play at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 10th before it opens on September 16 in the US.
