Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood will be playing sisters in Patricia Rozema’s upcoming Into the Forest.
Rozema will direct the adaptation of Jean Hegland’s novel of the same name. The film follows two sisters, Eva and Nell, who are on the cusp of adulthood. Both are pursuing their dreams, Eva is preparing for an audition with the San Francisco Ballet and Nell will be attending Harvard. But suddenly, when society suddenly collapses — the two are without electricity or any other resources and they must learn to survive while the world around them continues to fall apart.
Page will produce alongside Kelly Bush Novak and Sriram Das.
Wood will next be seen in Kat Coiro’s A Case of You opening in November. Page just wrapped the latest X-Men film and is attached to star in Queen and Country.
