《第九區》導演欲拍恐怖電影備受期待
自2009年的《第九區》取得了巨大的成功之後，導演尼爾-布洛姆坎普正在忙着準備開拍新片——恐怖驚悚電影《極樂世界》。好萊塢媒體的報道，著名女星朱迪-福斯特是最新加盟該片的一位演員，在這之前，男演員馬特-達蒙也宣佈將出演此片，而在《第九區》中已經與布洛姆坎普的演員沙爾託-科普雷也將在電影中出現。《極樂世界》的劇本也是由尼爾-布洛姆坎普撰寫，並且守口如瓶，不願多透露，導演目前正在各大廠牌間兜售劇本。
據悉，《極樂世界》將和《第九區》一樣，通過科幻片的外殼來講述嚴肅的社會問題。尼爾-布洛姆坎普出生於南非，首部電影處女作便是由大導演彼得-傑克遜擔當製片，並獲得了奧斯卡“最佳影片”的提名，這也使得尼爾在好萊塢聲名大振。《極樂世界》預計將於2012登陸院線。
Actress Jodie Foster is the latest high-profile star to sign onto Neill Blomkamp's new thriller Elysium.
Foster will join Sharlto Copley, who starred in Neill Blomkamp's big-screen debut District 9, as well as Matt Damon, who we reported was circling the project last month, and is now confirmed for the cast.
Blomkamp will direct Elysium from his own script, which has been kept under tight wraps. All that is known about this sci-fi thriller is that it will be set on another planet in the distant future.
Media Rights Capital is backing the project and, although Elysium hasn't been shopped around to studios yet, it is believed to be making the studio rounds after the full cast is in place.
Elysium comes to theaters in 2012 and stars Sharlto Copley, Matt Damon, Jodie Foster. The film is directed by Neill Blomkamp.
