The great Ben Kingsley is set to star in a feature film version of A DOLL’S HOUSE. The film will begin shooting in January and is based on Henrik Ibsen’s play that follows a family’s struggle during a debt crisis and how it impacts on each of there lives.
Jenna Malone (DONNIE DARKO), Michelle Martin (ASSISTING VENUS) and Julian Sands (THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO) will also feature in the tale that has previously been adapted for the big as well as small screen numerous times, most notably a 1973 effort starring Anthony Hopkins.
Writer/director Charles Huddleston has collaborated with his ASSISTING VENUS writer and star Michele Martin in updating the story to a modern day setting, with Huddleston insisting it is as relevant today as it was 130 years ago.
