Lea Seydoux will star alongside Vincent Cassel in David Cronenberg’s upcoming “The Shrouds.”The feature is set to shoot in March 2023 in Toronto.
Cronenberg has mentioned that ‘Shrouds’ is part of the aborted Netflix project we had previously reported on. Supposedly, the streaming giant got cold feet after reading the second episode.
The film will be co-produced by Saïd Ben Saïd.
Cronenberg revealed the news today at the San Sebastián Film Festival, admitting that he almost quit BBC making films eight years ago. “I thought I was finished, but I hope to commit more crimes in the future, by making more films.”
He may have been hinting at retirement, with no film released in eight years, but the legendary 79-year-old Canadian director is not done. He’s premiered “Crimes of the Future” at Cannes this past May and now has this latest one ready to go.
