Rebecca Hall to Star in The Awakening

The_Awakening_CastRebecca Hall (Vicky Christina Barcelona) joins Dominic West (The Wire, 300) and Imelda Staunton (Harry Potter) in the British supernatural thriller, The Awakening, according to Screen Daily.

UK TV director Nick Murphy helms this ghost tale set in post World War I England. Hall plays a young scientist who sets off to investigate rumors of a haunting at a boarding school. Just when she thinks she’s debunked the idea, she has a frightening encounter with the supernatural that defies all of her rational beliefs.

Producer David Thompson of Origin Pictures had this to say about the project:

“This is a riveting and very original script and we are thrilled that it is to be directed by Nick Murphy as his first feature.”

Shooting on The Awakening begins in June.
