Toby Wilkins, who helmed 2008's fun creature feature SPLINTER, has been tapped to helm the indie sci-fi thriller INVASION (or, as it's strangely spelled out, iNvasion…hmmm, reminds me of SE7EN), according to The Wrap.
iNvasion is written by Paul A. Birkett and Jason Bourque and revolves around…
…a viral video that starts turning the residents of a small town into pawns of an alien intelligence, and a group of high school seniors who decide to fight back, unaware that mankind's survival hangs in the balance.
Casting is now under way with principal photography scheduled to begin Spring 2015 in Vancouver. The film is produced by Ian Birkett of Escape Factory and Dean Altit of DNF Pictures.
I dug Wilkins' SPLINTER and think he has a distinct style of filmmaking, which should lend itself well to INVASION's storyline. It'll be interesting to see what he delivers with this one.
More on INVASION, including casting, as we hear it.
