Sometimes we report things we hear and they turn out to be totally wrong. I mean, they were right at one point, but now they are wrong. That’s the case with the casting of an indie film called After.Life (yes, there is supposed to be a period between the two words.) About 18 months ago, it was reported that Kate Bosworth and Alfred Molina would star, but this is 2008 and things have changed.
Variety says that now Christina Ricci and Liam Neeson have taken over the leads in the supernatural thriller. Ricci will play a woman who is caught between life and death (whatever that means) and Neeson is the funeral director who may or may not bury her. It all sounds very spooky.
The movie was written by and will be the feature directorial debut of Agnieszka Wojtowicz-Vosloo. Wojtowicz-Vosloo previously directed a short called Pate that won some festival awards. I’m going to admit that I’ve never seen or heard of it, but it was released in 2001 and seems to me there was some big event that happened that year that may have distracted me.
