British director Rupert Wyatt sat down with comingsoon.net to talk about his next project an adaptation of Sebastian Faulks' bestseller "Birdsong" for Working Title Productions.
Still in the pre-productions stage Wyatt revealed the some of the cast members, and he has assembled quite an impressive cast of Flicks News favourite actors with Brian Cox set to play a tough army colonel, and Michael Fassbender& Paddy Considine also attatched.
Wyatt had this to say on the plot of the film:
"It's a very well known book in the UK. It's a big bestseller about 10, 15 years ago, but it's set during World War I. I supposed you could relate it to 'The English Patient' albeit of a different period, but it has a similar structure in terms of it deals with different timelines. It's about a man whose heart is broken during a love affair with this married woman who ultimately ends up experiencing the horrors of the first World War."
