Just because a bunch of actors and director Rob Marshall have gone into the woods for, er, Into** The Woods**, that doesn’t stop someone from trying to make a movie called Into The Forest. It’s not a musical but a dystopian future tale, and it’ll star Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood{
Patricia Rozema is directing the adaptation of Jean Heglund’s novel, which will find Page and Wood as sisters struggling to survive when society collapses in a near-future scenario. To escape the day-to-day horrors of their Northern California city, the escape into the local woods. Sorry, forest.
Page is aboard to produce the film, which doesn’t have a set start date yet. She was seen this year in The East and will show up in 2014 as part of the sprawling ensemble in X-Men: Days Of Future Past. Wood has Charlie Countryman and rom-com A Case Of You in her future and has just finished work on Barefoot.
