Given that she spent a healthy chunk of her early career hunting down supernatural and other mysteries, we imagine Gillian Anderson will feel right at home joining the cast of Richie Mehta’s new film** I’ll Follow You Down**.
The movie, which already features Haley Joel Osment, Rufus Sewell and Victor Garber, concerns a scientist (Sewell) who vanishes without trace during a business trip. The incident leaves his wife (Anderson) and his son shocked and saddened.
But then, years later, the son (now played by Osment) and his grandfather (Garber) make a startling discovery. They invent New Coke! No, they actually just find information that points to Sewell still being among the living.
Mehta wrote the script and is currently cranking the cameras in Toronto with a cast that also features Catherine Bruhier, John Paul Ruttan, Sarah Manninen and Rupinder Nagra, who starred in Mehta’s first film, Amal.
Anderson will next be seen in James Marsh’s IRA drama** Shadow Dancer** alongside Clive Owen and Andrea Riseborough. That one will be out on August 24.
