Woody Harrelson has booked his ticket aboard Machinist director Brad Anderson’s next film, Trans-Siberian.
Samantha Morton, Ben Kingsley, Kate Mara and Spanish star Eduardo Noriega have also all been cast in the story of a couple (Harrelson and Morton) who meet another pair while travelling on the titular train shuttling between China and Moscow. What looks like a happy holiday for all turns into a nightmare chase loaded with double-crossing and bloody murder as no one is quite what they seem. Kingsley’s role is the Russian police officer hunting them all down.
Anderson stokes the directing fires nest month in Beijing and then Russia.
