Keira says Never

Just other day I was talking with a friend and lamenting the loss of Mark Romanek on THE WOLFMAN. I’m sure the movie will be great and all but I know Romanek would’ve brought something special to the material. Hopefully it won’t be too long in before we get to see Romanek’s first feature since 2002 as he’s signed on to direct the sci-fi thriller NEVER LET ME GO for Fox Searchlight. Keira Knightley has signed on to star in the film that follows three English students who realize their boarding school is actually a farm for clones waiting to have their organs harvested. The movie is based on the novel of the same name by Kazuo Ishiguro and while it sounds like THE ISLAND, isn’t quite the same as that Michae Bay action flick. The script was written by Alex Garland (28 DAYS LATER) and made the list of the 10 Best Unproduced Scripts for 2008. Production on the film is set to begin this April in London.
