A Headey Tale

Now that she’s done dusting it up with cyborgs as the title lady of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (and no word yet on whether she’ll continue her war on the machines in a second season), Brit babe Lena Headey is slipping into a new role.

The former Sparta queen has joined TELL-TALE, the contemporized version of Edgar Allen Poe’s macabre short story “The Tell-Tale Heart”. The movie, from director Michael Cuesta (DEXTER, SIX FEET UNDER), stars Josh Lucas as a heart transplant recipient compelled by his new organ to seek revenge on the donor’s killer. Brian Cox is a crusty cop on the confounding case.

The movie comes from Tony and Ridley Scott’s production company Scott Free, with a script that has been intriguingly described as “JACOB’S LADDER meets MARATHON MAN.” Headey will also appear with Sean Bean in the supernatural medieval horror flick BLACK DEATH.
